Wednesday, May 21st, 2008 |
| On May 21 - 23 the Eighth National Conference on Immunization and Health Coalitions will be held in San Francisco at the Downtown Marriott Hotel. This year’s conference focuses on how coalitions and collaborative efforts can influence disease prevention, reduce health disparities, educate new populations, and build community health infrastructure. The conference features Dr. Fran Butterfoss of the Center for Pediatric Research, presenting on Working Together across Coalitions and Health Communities, and Dr. Noreen Clark, University of Michigan, presenting on Allies Against Asthma: A Model for Community Health Coalitions. There is still time to submit abstracts for the breakout sessions – abstracts must reflect successful practices regarding coalition partnerships and collaborations, coalition evaluation, health education and advocacy, and cultural competency, among other things. The conference early registration cost before February 28th is $225.
