Join us on Wednesday, October 30 at 2:00 p.m. ET for a webinar to learn how combining relevant data with legal and policy strategies has helped reduce healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) over the past decade. You’ll hear from leading legal experts, healthcare executives, government representatives, and community partners. Given the considerable progress made over the past decade to achieve Healthy People 2020 HAI-related objectives, we’ll also discuss how these valuable lessons learned can help drive action through Healthy People 2030.

About the Law and Health Policy Project

The goal of the Healthy People Law and Health Policy project is to highlight how evidence-based legal and policy interventions and strategies can facilitate progress toward Healthy People objectives by improving community health and well-being. In addition to reports and webinars, the project includes “Bright Spots,” or success stories, that highlight successful policy interventions that have led to improved health outcomes.

The project is a collaboration between the HHS Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (ODPHP), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the CDC Foundation, and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
