Health Committee

In celebration of its 80th anniversary, the National Council of Negro Women (NCNW) revealed a “new agenda for a new age,” vowing to take urgent action around education, health, economic empowerment and public policy in an effort to build a stronger Black America.  The Section’s Health Committee will undertake the task to help the membership to be  more aware about the health agenda of the National headquarters.  In addition, the Health Committee will disseminate information on the Section’s website and social media sites, as well as, partner with organizations (i.e., the County’s African American Health Program) in order to help enlighten and inform our Section members, as well as, the community about prevalent, high-risk health issues and preventative measures.
