2023 Healthy Start Regional Meetings
Healthy Start (HS) Regional Meetings provide an opportunity for HS grantees to come together with other grantees in their region over the course of 1.5 days. In addition to connecting with each other and their Project Officers, grantees attend plenary sessions and participate in skill-building sessions and engagement activities. There were five Regional Meetings hosted in 2023.
During each Regional Meeting, Dr. Warren, the Associate Administrator of the Maternal and Child Health Bureau, provided a welcome and presentation through this video.
