A Special Message from CPHA President Brian TurnerNovember 30, 2016Hi everyone, Just a couple of weeks ago, Denver hosted the largest public health conference in the world. More than 12,000 visited our state for the American Public Health Association’s Annual Meeting to network, share experiences and learn from one another. For me, the event brought one of the most fun experiences I have had professionally: the opportunity to welcome a crowd of thousands at the Opening Session and introduce Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper. It was an incredible honor to represent the Colorado Public Health Association and thank the audience for what they do and who they are – relentless optimists. Advancing public health is not easy. It never has been. I believe hard times are the impetus for solidarity and that challenges are the foundation for opportunity. Whether you’re a member or not, I’d like to extend an invitation to you to help realize CPHA's vision to make Colorado the healthiest state in the Union. In partnership with the Colorado Society for Public Health Educators (COSOPHE), the Public Health Nurses Association of Colorado (PHNAC), and the Colorado Environmental Health Association (CEHA), CPHA is launching the Colorado Public Health Webinar Series to share new learning and professional development opportunities. These lunchtime webinars will be a tremendous way to connect you to a positive, passionate movement in support of great health for all. Our first webinar will be Tuesday, December 6th, noon - 1:00 p.m. Health Equity for Transgender Youth Click here to register. My sincere appreciation to everyone for your commitment to health – looking forward to our work ahead,
