MEN’S HEALTH NETWORK IS A MEMBER OF THE COMBINED FEDERAL CAMPAIGN: # 1 0 8 2 5
The health and well-being of men requires attention because of recorded differences in life expectancy, health outcomes, and other factors impacting how men grow, live, work, and age.
The Office of Minority Health (OMH) at the U.S Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has launched Men’s Health Listening Sessions across the country. The purpose of these discussions is to learn thoughts and perceptions around factors that impact your overall health. These events allow men an opportunity to provide feedback on key areas including: Health & Prevention, Substance Abuse/Mental Health, and Fitness & Nutrition.
