One year ago today, I was honored to join @HHSGov as the 16th Assistant Secretary for Health. Thanks to the dedicated professionals I’ve been privileged to work with, it’s been an incredible year.
Although this has been a historically impactful year for OASH, we have only just begun our mission to Lead America to Healthier Lives. Most recently – we announced a historic new plan to end the #HIVepidemic in America. hiv.gov/federal-respon…
We rolled out numerous critical efforts including the #PAGuidelines, the #CommonRule, cross-agency effort on #SickleCell disease with @nhlbi, #PainTaskForce & #HPV initiative.
I have the privilege of leading the US #PublicHealthService #CommissionedCorps along with the @Surgeon_General. The Corps serves in hundreds of locations, domestically and globally, to deliver care to those most in need & to pioneer science & policies to advance public health.
And as the senior advisor to @SecAzar on opioid policy, OASH has led the effort on a number of activities including @HHSGov National Convening on Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome #NAS. This is truly the role of a lifetime and I’m looking forward to the rest of this year!
