Please join us for a conference call with Secretary of Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sebelius; Assistant Surgeon General, Dr. Anne Schuchat and Director of the White House Office of Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships, Joshua DuBois, as well as HHS and CDC experts to discuss the release of a new resource "H1N1 Flu: A Guide for Community and Faith-based Organizations." The call will focus on the important role of community and faith-based leaders and organizations as partners in 2009-2010 flu response and prevention. The new guide was developed by the HHS Center for Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships (HHS Partnership Center) with support from the Centers for Disease Control. Speakers will provide the latest information on H1N1 flu and vaccination plans, and an overview of the guide. 

You and your organization are crucial leaders and resources in your communities, and essential partners in comprehensive state and local flu response.  We want to ensure you and your communities have this resource and the most up-to-date information on H1N1 flu.  The HHS Partnership Center will keep an open and dynamic channel of communication throughout the response effort. Following the completion of the call, we will send a call summary to our listserv.  If you are not part of our listerv, you can join us at www.hhs.gov/partnership, click ‘Join the Mailing List' under the ‘Newsletter' box on the right-hand side of your screen. 

At the time of the call, copies of the guide will be available for download at www.flu.gov and at our Web site www.hhs.gov/partnership.
