THANK YOU to all who are working tirelessly to monitor, manage, and mitigate the COVID-19 pandemic. We’re grateful for the work you’re doing and remain available to provide support, guidance, and resources, when helpful. The critical role of public health in a healthy, thriving, and equitable society has never been more evident; nor has our dire need for more funding, better infrastructure, and a systems approach. Our collective challenge in the months and years ahead is to build capacity, improve policies, strengthen partnerships, and champion transformational change, working toward the achievement of health equity and well-being for all people throughout Indiana. We invite you to join in that journey, and have several new ways for you to get engaged. We look forward to connecting with you soon! Take care and have a great weekend.

All of Us
IPHA was fortunate to receive a small grant this spring to help promote the National Institutes of Health All of Us research program . Though COVID-19 has taken center stage instead, it’s still important and timely to promote diversity and inclusion in research that accounts for environmental impacts and will advance clinical care while reducing disparities.
