Subject: [spiritof1848] NIH strategy to reduce and ultimately eliminate health
disparities
Hi everyone--
A chance to push forward work for social justice and public health
in the US. In that, below are websites for the overall NIH "Strategic plan
to reduce and ultimately eliminate health disparites" along with strategic
plans formulated by the many Institutes that comprise the NIH. Also below
is the web site with info on the US Dept of Health and Human Services'
(DHHS) "Initiatve to Eliminate Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Health"
and the joint DHHS/American Public Health Association "Call to Action" for
their "Campaign to Eliminate Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities".
Please note that comments are being solicted for NIH for the
overall strategic plan by Dec 1, 2000 (see web page for details) and also
by many of the NIH institutes. So, by all means: SEND IN YOUR COMMENTS!
onwards--
Nancy Krieger
