The Examiner Washington D.C. printed a story Friday (Jan 25th) about the Office on Women’s Health featuring information about men’s health. You may view the article here at the Examiner’s blog.
Women are the mothers, sisters, aunts, and spouses that influence men and their health. We as men need their expertise, their help, and encouragement if we are to live long healthy lives and fulfill our obligations to family.
We appreciate the Examiner’s efforts in bringing awareness to the lack of men’s health initiatives in the federal government. As highlighted in the article, an Office of Men’s Health will mirror the Office on Women’s Health and serve as the primary men’s health outreach and networking office for men and women around the country.
In Congress, the Office of Men’s Health will be authorized by the Men’s Health Act of 2007 introduced by Senator Crapo in the Senate and Representatives Vito Fossella and Baron Hill in the House. The House bill is co-sponsored by over 50 members hailing from both parties.
