On Friday, Jan. 30, 2009, the Michigan Department of Community Health (MDCH) and the Detroit Department of Health and Wellness Promotion (DHWP) will be holding the Detroit Asthma Mortality Summit at the Atheneum Hotel and Conference Center.
This gathering of public health and healthcare leaders from the City of Detroit will launch the initiative to reduce Detroit’s asthma burden and improve the quality of life for those with asthma. The Summit is designed as a working meeting to create recommendations for future activities and policy change.
