Despite significant medical advances, communities of color in this country continue to experience higher rates of disease, disability, and premature death. The Department of Health and Human Services Office of Minority Health (OMH) launched the National Partnership for Action (NPA) to help eliminate health disparities. I wrote and edited the following foundational materials for this important HHS-wide public health initiative:

  • NPA Strategic Planning Document
  • NPA Strategic Communications Plan
  • NPA public website content
  • NPA partnership criteria and templates for memoranda of agreement between OMH and potential partner organizations
  • NPA partnership recruitment brochure
  • Media toolkit about health disparities
  • Update reports on NPA activities for submission to the HHS Assistant Secretary for Health
