MEMORANDUM

Posted: March 3, 2014 10:59 AM
From: Representative Jake Wheatley, Jr.
To: All House members
Subject: Resolution Recognizing April 2014 as "National Minority Health Month" in Pennsylvania.
 
In the near future, I plan on introducing a resolution recognizing April 2014 as "National Minority Health Month" in Pennsylvania.

Launched by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Minority Health, National Minority Health Month is an inclusive initiative that addresses the health needs of African Americans, Hispanics, Asians, Native Americans, and other minorities. The primary goal National Minority Health Month is to strengthen the capacity of local communities to eliminate the disproportionate burden of premature death and preventable illness in minority populations through prevention, early detection, and control of disease complications. The theme for "National Minority Health Month 2014” is “Advance Health Equity Now: Uniting Our Communities to Bring Health Care Coverage to All.”

Please consider joining me in recognizing April 2014 as "National Minority Health Month" in Pennsylvania.
