“The JSPH at NSU and ODU is a unique partnership in academic public health. As the second HBCU to provide a school of public health, I am thrilled that our collaboration has reached this critical milestone. One of the many distinguishing characteristics of NSU as an HBCU is a longstanding commitment to health and wellness for everyone,” said NSU President Javaune Adams-Gaston, Ph.D. “This is a unique partnership between our two institutions that in time will show the power of regionalism…and how collaboration can be used to find solutions to improve wellness and health outcomes for everyone, especially in underserved communities.”
