HEADLINING WOMEN IN PUBLIC HEALTH
There are some pretty amazing women headlining at the Milken Institute's Public Health Summit this week. For instance, Barbara Pierce Bush, who is the Co-founder and President of a public health-focused non-profit, Global Health Corps. She lives in a glittery, all-access world but has chosen to dedicate herself to improving the lot of others, running GHC's fellows program, which sends ambitious people who are interested (but not necessarily trained) in public health to work either overseas or in troubled American cities like Newark, New Jersey.
The last few months of hard work have really paid off - we have 550+ high-quality attendees coming to the summit in the next two days - March 1st and 2nd, which is being held at George Washington University and The Ritz Carlton in Washington, D.C.
