Bringing Public Health and Primary Care Together: The Practical Playbook National Meeting was at the Hyatt Regency in Bethesda, MD, May 22 - 24, 2016. The meeting was a milestone event towards advancing robust collaborations that improve population health. Key stakeholders from across sectors – representing professional associations, community organizations, government agencies and academic institutions – and across the country came together at the National Meeting to help catalyze a national movement, accelerate collaborations by fostering skill development, and connect with like-minded individuals and organizations to facilitate the exchange of ideas to drive population health improvement.
The National Meeting was also a significant source of tools and resources to advance collaboration. These tools and resources are available below and include:

7. …covenant & combine ourselves
together into a civil body politic;
for our better ordering, and
preservation and furtherance of
the ends aforesaid; and by virtue
hereof to enact, constitute, and
frame, such just and equal laws,
ordinances, acts, constitutions,
and offices, from time to time, as
shall be thought most meet and
convenient for the general good
of the colony; unto which we
promise all due submission &
obedience.”

outbreak in
Massachusetts
12. But the liberty secured by the
Constitution of the United States
to every person within its
jurisdiction does not import an
absolute right in each person to
be, at all times and in all
circumstances, wholly freed from
restraint. There are manifold
restraints to which every person is
necessarily subject for the
common good. On any other
basis, organized society could not
exist with safety to its members.”

categories, such as race or
national origin.
75. What about limiting the number of
fast food restaurants in certain
parts of the city?
TRUE
Zoning codes can restrict the
number of fast food chains in
certain parts of the city as long
as those distinctions are not
based on the race, national
origin, or ethnicity of a
community.
77. TRUE
Minors do not receive special
protection under the Equal
Protection Clause. Therefore,
laws that treat them differently
from adults need only be
reasonably related to a
legitimate government goal.
What about putting an age restriction
on buying harmful products?
