Overview

The economic downturn is real. We can anticipate a significant decline in revenues available for public health programs at the global, national, state, and local levels. During this same time period, the number of persons adversely impacted by this economic decline will significantly rise, thereby increasing the demands on public health at all levels.

The Public Health Leadership Institute and the North Carolina Institute for Public Health will present the first in a series of discussions, "Public Health Survival: Leadership in a Falling Market", Monday, December 15. A panel of public health leaders will talk about the issues surrounding operating public health systems in a down economy, share illustrative experiences, emphasize ways to anticipate and measure influences, and identify new strategies and networks to continue the work of public health.

Audience

Public health leaders and policy-makers, managers and supervisors, agency planners, community leaders, and anyone concerned about public health in tough economic times.
