TU Students Attend 10th Annual Health Education Summit in Washington, D.C.
Students spent March 3-5, 2007 at the 10th Annual Health Education Summit in Washington, D.C., where presentations were given by the director of CDC's National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, Senator Kennedy's chief health staffer, and the director of CDC's REACH program.
The trip also included visits to Capitol Hill where students discussed important health issues with Congressional staff members. This year, they met Senator Cardin, who joined them for a group photo.
The program was a wonderful learning experience as well as a unique opportunity to talk with government officials.
Dr. Buchbinder is Chairperson and Coordinator of Health Care Management at Towson University’s Department of Health Science. She is also co-author of the 2007 book, Introduction to Health Care Management.
