This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, take time to learn what you can do to support your breast health. 🎀

Healthy habits may help lower your risk, while recommended screenings can help find breast cancer earlier. Because everyone’s risk is different, talk with a health care provider about your family history and the screening plan that is right for you.

Through Interprofessional Education training, students in Nursing, Physical Therapy, Athletic Training, Speech-Language Pathology, Audiology and Social Work are building skills in teamwork, communication and collaborative care. CHHS is preparing the next generation of health and human services professionals to work across disciplines and provide safer, more effective, patient-centered care.

What does your health start with? ❤️

Maybe it’s moving your body, getting enough rest, caring for your mental health, staying connected or simply making time for the things you love.

At CHHS, we know health is more than health care. It’s about the whole person and the many factors that help us feel, live and thrive.

When extreme heat becomes a health risk, how can research help communities prepare? ☀️

SDSU researchers are working with farmworker communities in California’s Imperial Valley to map rural heat islands and better understand how extreme heat affects those who work outdoors.

The goal? Use research and community knowledge to develop strategies that can help protect health as temperatures rise.

The Rural Heat Islands project brings together SDSU, UC Santa Barbara, UC Cooperative Extension and Lideres Campesinas to advance climate action and environmental justice. 🌎

This is research in action: addressing a real-world public health challenge alongside the communities most affected.
