Countdown To NALBOH Conference in Atlanta
 The National Association of Local Boards of Health (NALBOH) will
be
celebrating its 20th annual conference at the Hyatt Regency in
downtown Atlanta from August 8-10. This national conference
will provide board
of health members, health department officials and other public
health leaders with information about past public health
achievements, current public health priorities and the role of
governance in shaping the future of public health. In addition
to three keynote addresses, the conference will feature
workshops and sessions that address governance and leadership,
board development, public health policy and public health
priorities.
Other conference highlights include tours of the Atlanta
Beltline redevelopment project, CDC Emergency Operations Center
and CDC Museum. Also, continuing education credits will be
available for physicians, nurses and health educators.
Veterinarian credits are pending.
Georgia will be featured in several ways at the conference, including a
keynote address by Brenda Fitzgerald, M.D., a welcome address by state board
of health chair Gary Nelson, Ph.D., an advocacy workshop featuring a panel
from Georgia (sponsored by the Emory Public Health Training Center) and a
special lunch meeting for members of Georgia's local boards of health.
