Zuckerman Family Center for Prevention and Health Promotion
Strengthening communities, building future public health leaders and promoting health and wellness
What We Do
ZFCPHP promotes individual, family, and community health through various opportunities, including volunteering, interning, and coursework for University of Arizona students. These experiences allow students to gain hands-on public health skills in community assessments, program planning, and evaluation, while fostering strong partnerships. Our dedicated team offers mentorship and guidance, helping students grow into advocates for health and well-being.
