Celebrate Black History Month

Posted by  admin  Feb 15, 2015

Celebrate 30 Years of Advancing Health Equity! Learn about the Million Hearts initiative and the ABCs, and link to information and activities that address the health and well-being of African American populations in the United States.

This year's theme is, "A Century of Black Life, History, and Culture". The year 2015 marks the 30th Anniversary of the 1985 Report of the Secretary's Task Force on Black and Minority Health, a landmark eight-volume report, known as the Heckler Report, documenting the extent of health disparities affecting Americans of color and recommending action steps for the nation to address these disparities.
