From infancy through old age, the conditions in the social and physical environments in which people are born, live, work, and age can have a significant influence on health outcomes. Addressing the social determinants of health is key to improving population health, eliminating health disparities, and meeting the overarching goals of Healthy People 2020.

Join us on Thursday, September 20 at 12 PM ET to find out how one program improved high school graduation rates using school-wide education strategies. This Webinar will be led by the HHS Deputy Assistant Secretary for Health, Dr. Don Wright, and will include a roundtable discussion on the importance of education as a tool for addressing the social determinants of health and improving the health of our Nation's young people.
