One Small Change - For the Health of It

Posted by Marc | 5-06-2009 22:49 | Category: Government, Health

Nice catch from Pulse and Signal’s Andre Blackman about the One Small Change campaign from the Salt Lake Valley Health Department in Utah (USA).

The One Small Change campaign focuses on the simple things you can do to improve your health. Through the use of stickers and other community efforts, they encourage Salt Lake County residents to incorporate one small change into their lifestyle this year.

The “center” of the campaign is the YouTube video, created 100% in-house with a budget of $0.00. They shot the video using a tiny Flip camera and edited it using iMovie.

At Pulse and Signal a interview with this local county health department about the use of social media. If you are a local county health department thinking about taking the plunge into the uses of new media, please pay attention.

Thanks for highlighting this Marc! They are doing wonderful things over there with social media. I’m hoping more local health departments catch on.

@Andre Thanks. What the Salt Lake Valley Health Department is doing must be daily routine for all departments isn’t it?
