This session will use data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Public Health Systems to explore how physicians and community health centers engage in initiatives to improve public health within local communities. We will examine geographic variation and longitudinal changes in these contributions, and consider implications for clinical practice and public policy.

Speakers: Glen Mays, PhD, Director of Systems for Action, Chair of the HSMP Dept at CSPH
