 Director's Note


Hello! We're currently redesigning the Public Health Law Program (PHLP) website, and some of our publications will not be available on the website during this time. In an effort to improve the function of the site and accessibility for people with disabilities, we’ll ensure all our publications are in compliance with Section 508 before they are posted again. In the meantime, if you need a specific publication, please contact PHLP. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Thanks again for your interest in our work and the Public Health Law News.
