2002 E-News Index Page to start for 2002. I will be providing some info on how to cite Public Health E-News as a reference using APA format, and a listing of sources I use for the newsletter.
Terms of Use & Privacy Policy - Even though this is a personal Web site, and I really don't have to have such documents, I thought it would be good practice to have a page that spells out simply what my thoughts are in terms of how this Web site should be used and a simple privacy policy to inform those who want to know what my stance is regarding privacy. These issues are already covered more extensively on my Quality Statement Page and the Healthy People 2010 Objective 11.4 Page for the truly interested. This page will be accessible from all the Web pages - once I get a chance to add the link on...
Ratings, Etc. I decided to revamp my Awards Page - which has some new awards. I moved all the rating icons to this page. Ratings are not really awards, per se, but they do reflect that the site has been reviewed to see if it meets a specific criteria set by a rating organization. For example, this Web site can be visited by your child and/or parent, which means this is a clean site.
