Congratulations Karyn Smith at the BHAC Summit!

The Building Healthy Academic Communities National Summit took place on April 22-23 at Ohio State University.

These representatives worked together to stimulate solutions and the sharing of best practices to promote population health and wellness at our nation’s institutions of higher education.
