The National Leadership Summit on Eliminating Racial & Ethnic
Disparities in Health"</b> will be held in Washington DC, January 9-11,

 The Summit will bring together leaders from all levels of government,
academia, public health, mental health, minority-serving institutions,
and minority communities to advance key issues and opportunities for
improving minority health and closing the health gap.  The Secretary's
1985 Report of the Task Force on Black and Minority Health created OMH
and then served as the start for addressing health inequalities for
racial and ethnic minorities in the U.S.  

This Summit marks the 20th year Anniversary since the establishment of
the Office of Minority Health and is intended to promote best practices
and collaborative actions that are vital to improving minority health
in the future.
