Health Education
Welcome to our Community Health-related Education programs at Ojuola Public Health Consulting! Our mission is to provide quality health education programs to our community members to promote healthy living and prevent illnesses. Our community-based approach means that we prioritize the needs of our community members in our program design and implementation.
We provide fact-based, age-appropiate, and nonjudgemental programs.
Public health education is crucial to ensuring that young people have access to accurate and age-appropriate information. Ojuola Public Health Consulting has adapted its programming to the COVID-19 pandemic, we now have two options for presentations:
- Live In-Person Presentations
- Live Zoom Education Presentations
Ojuola Consulting is following all recommendations from the Maryland Department of Health (MDH) regarding in-person gatherings. If you are interested in a Live In-Person Presentation the Annex requests that eveyone who might participate also follow MDH Guidelines (masks, social distancing, etc.).
If you, your organization, and/or your audience are not following all recommendations from the Maryland Department of Health, Ojuola Consulting is happy to provide either Live Zoom Education Presentations. If you have any questions about the our requirements for Live In-Person Presentations please reach out to us.
Are you interested in a presentation from our education team? Please specify which presentation you would like on the request form.
