BARHII would like to acknowledge a generous donation from the Center for Public Health Practice at UC Berkeley School of Public Health and the Pacific Public Health Training Center (PPHTC). We encourage readers to visit the website for the Center for Multicultural Health, which routinely partners with health department staff to assist them in advancing the work of eliminating health inequities. One enterprise of the center, the "Isms" Initiative, responsible for organizing the "Isms" Conference and several subsequent trainings, welcomes new participants.
