 The New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services, Office of Minority and Multicultural Health (NJDHSS, OMMH) and the Rutgers Center for State Health Policy held the NJDHSS Commissioner’s Health Disparities Symposium on Monday, September 21, 2009 at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in Princeton. The annual event brings stakeholders together to develop strategies to combat racial and ethnic health disparities.

 The event, hosted by NJDHSS Health Commissioner, Heather Howard, featured a keynote presentation by Dr. Lauren Smith, Medical Director of the Massachusetts State Department of Health.  

NJCRI and five other grantees were honored by the Commissioner for demonstrating best practices for eliminating health disparities within their communities. Danielle Bush, Program Manager of the Counseling and Testing Unit, spoke as part of the Program Best Practices panel. She and Brian McGovern, Executive Director, accepted the award on behalf of NJCRI.
