Eighty years ago, Milwaukee was the healthiest city in the country. Now, it’s among the unhealthiest in the state. What happened?
Join Mayor Tom Barrett and Commissioner of Health Bevan Baker on Sept. 6 for a wide-ranging discussion on the state of health of Wisconsin’s largest city, and how it impacts the rest of the state. They’ll outline what city officials and other leaders are doing to decrease disparities and reduce infant mortality rates, and examine why these rates, and others, including obesity, are higher in Milwaukee.
Wisconsin Health News Editor Tim Stumm will moderate this Newsmaker Event on Sept. 6 in Milwaukee at the Milwaukee Athletic Club.
