AMERICAN INDIAN HEALTH POLICY SYMPOSIUM
AIHMP and the California Rural Indian Health Board, Inc. (CRIHB) are taking the 2008 American Indian Health Policy Symposium on the road to Pechanga Resort & Casino in Temecula, California.
AIHMP and CRIHB will host a two-day event on May 21-22, 2008 and will include an agenda focused on the AIHMP’s mission to improve healthcare services for American Indians by bridging the gap between patients and health services. The 2008 American Indian Health Policy Symposium will look at the broad spectrum of current and emerging American Indian healthcare and health policy issues affecting the health of both tribal and urban Indian populations.
With additional speakers, an exhibitor’s hall and a silent auction benefitting California Indian Health Programs, this event promises to be even better than the first.
