Community Science Principals Participate in National Health Disparities Plan Consensus Meeting

Community Science Principals Participate in National Health Disparities Plan Consensus Meeting

In 2006, the Office of Minority Health (OMH) sponsored the inaugural National Leadership Summit on Eliminating Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Health. A direct outcome of the Summit was the formation of the National Partnership for Action (NPA) to end health disparities for minority populations. OMH asked Community Science principals to participate in a consensus meeting to advance the NPA's first national health disparities plan, with David Chavis serving on the Evaluation Advisory Group and Kien Lee on the Implementation Planning Group.
 
OMH is a division of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services. For information, email us at Community Science.
