2013 National County Health Rankings

Creating A Road Map To Improved Health In Your Communities

On May 1, 2013, NYSACHO sponsored a legislative forum on the 2013 County Health Rankings and the Prevention Agenda, with support from the University of Wisconsin and Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. The forum presentations feature: Linking the rankings to the Prevention Agenda; the Affordable Care Act and the rankings; and how three local health departments, two with low rankings and one with a high ranking, use the rankings to educate and develop policies to address health conditions and disparities in each of their communities.

NYSACHO thanks the Empire State Public Health Training Center for recording this event for on-line viewing.
