How does public policy impact public health. We ask Dr. Keshia Pollack Porter, the Chair of the Dept. of Health Policy and Management at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, the director of the “Health in All Policies Initiative."

She is a scholar in the field of health equity, and she is the first African American to be named as the chair of a department in the longer than 100 year history of the School of Public Health.
