Health Advocates in Kansas Sponsor "Legislative Health Forums" During April for National Public Health Week, April 7-14 The Kansas Public Health Association (KPHA), its member organizations and the American Public Health Association (APHA) will celebrate National Public Health Week, April 7-14, 2008. This year KPHA has organized statewide Legislative Health Forums to help educate the public about two issues: health reform and pandemic preparedness for Kansans. These community forums will be held in 15 cities across the state, with an Open House format being held in Wichita. Area legislators have been invited to give an update on health reform in the Kansas 2008 Legislative Session. An opportunity to learn about the states plan for a pandemic will also be presented by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment. Information about the nationwide Get Ready campaign and how individuals, families and organizations can plan for emergencies will be available. The forum will conclude with a question and answer session. The forum is free and open to the public, and no registration is necessary. For more information or to request special accommodations, please contact the phone numbers below during normal business hours. Requests for special accommodation must be made by close of business at least 3 days before the forum. See KPHA website at www.kpha.us for a complete schedule. |
