The Community Health Planning and Policy Development program is set, and it’s looking great! We look forward to four full days of education, networking and presentations. We have over 50 scientific, poster and roundtable sessions, and hundreds of individual presentations therein. We will be delivering a variety of topics, including Health Care Access and Barriers, Health System Reform, Crime Prevention and Prisoner Reentry, Social and Mental Health Needs, Health Information Technology and Public Health Informatics, Health Literacy, and Transportation Policy. The sheer breadth of our program is evidenced by the range of other APHA sections and groups who are co-sponsoring us, including Genomics, Equal Health Opportunity, Environment, Family Violence Prevention, Maternal and Child Health, Ethics, and Community Health Workers. Take a peek at the full program online and don’t forget that 2009 marks CHPPD’s 40th year. We look forward to celebrating our anniversary with you.
SEE YOU SOON!
