CAMICC: CDC/ATSDR Minority Initiatives Coordinating Committee

The Office of Minority and Women's Health, NCID, is active in the CDC/ATSDR Minority Initiative Coordinating Committee (CAMICC).

CAMICC was charged by the CDC Director in December 2001 to carry out the implementation of the Minority Health Initiative, which mandates each center, institute, or office of CDC/ATSDR to establish priority minority health areas. The CAMICC meets monthly to discuss progress in implementation of the plan.

Within NCID, the current CAMICC priority areas are research and communication.
