HHS Coordinating Committee on Women's Health
OWH Home > Working Groups and Committees > HHS Coordinating Committee on Women's Health
The HHS Coordinating Committee on Women's Health (CCWH) was established in 1983 to advise the Assistant Secretary for Health (and in 1993, the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Health (Women's Health)) on current and planned activities across DHHS that would safeguard and improve the physical and mental health of all women in the United States. The Coordinating Committee is chaired by Dr. Wanda K. Jones, the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Health (Women's Health). The Committee's members include senior-level representatives from each of the federal agencies and offices within the Department of Health and Human Services.
The Coordinating Committee on Women's Health has established a Working Group on HIV/AIDS and Women. This Working Group is composed of representatives from the U.S. Public Health Service's agencies and HHS offices and regional offices. It serves as a resource for initiating activities to address HIV/AIDS in women. It also proposes potential collaborations and partnerships to facilitate the development and implementation of HIV/AIDS projects and programs that will focus on women.
