As a NEHA partner, NACCHO staff presented at several sessions and elicited the participation of its members at this year's AEC in New Orleans, LA.
This blog addresses key terms related to disability inclusion as well as physical, communicative, and programmatic accessibility considerations for all phases of health promotion programming conducted by LHDs.
NACCHO’s Health and Disability Program recently updated its policy statement. NACCHO fellows Valerie Perkoski (PhD student at Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions) and Haleigh Leslie (DrPH student at East Tennessee State University) and NACCHO’s Health and Disability workgroup members were instrumental in developing the revised policy statement.
Research has shown that while adolescents and young people who use drugs are just as vulnerable to substance use-related harms, they are much less likely to utilize harm reduction services than older age groups.
In November, the HIV, STI, Viral Hepatitis, and Harm Reduction Workgroup (HSHW) met in person, with representatives from CDC to share LHD experiences in the HIV, STI, and Harm Reduction spaces, hear of CDC priorities, and strategize together on advancing program successes and addressing program challenges.
