The American Journal of Health Promotion
Authors' Series

Hosted by Dr. Michael O'Donnell

I am proud to announce the launch of our new series of free live webinars, featuring research published in The American Journal of Health Promotion.  Each session will present studies that have a significant impact on health promotion research or practice.  Authors will present their work, participants will have a chance to ask questions and I will facilitate the conversation.
Please join us as we continue with our commitment to:

• Provide a forum for the many diverse disciplines that contribute to health promotion

and

• Reduce the gap between health promotion research and practice by delivering the most current and relevant research in the field while addressing its practical application.
