Public Health and Human Rights

The highest attainable standard of health is one of the fundamental rights of every human being. Health and well-being are nearly impossible to achieve when these rights are neglected or violated. The APHA Annual Meeting theme "Public Health and Human Rights" will examine health and human rights from multiple perspectives, including social sciences and natural and quantitative sciences. It will explore human rights issues in the areas of employment, healthcare, security, race, reproductive rights and mental health to name a few. This interdisciplinary approach evaluates the complex issues at the intersection of health and human rights and enables more promising solutions and employs more accurate evaluation techniques.

Closing General Session Wednesday, November 8 4:30 pm-6:00 pm

Expanding Health Care Coverage: Are Mandates An Option?

The Closing General Session will focus on increasing access to health care and examine initiatives at the state and federal level that incorporate individual and employer mandates. The panelists will discuss various proposals for their general applicability and approach. APHA has long standing policy asserting health care is a human right and the states are the laboratory for action right now. Panelists will focus on the Massachusetts legislation which includes a combination of individual and employer mandates and the "Wal-Mart bill" which has been introduced in several states, passed in Maryland and includes an employer mandate.

John E. McDonough is the Executive Director of Health Care for All, Massachusetts' leading consumer health advocacy organization. From 1998 through 2003, he was an Associate Professor at the Heller School of Brandeis University and a Senior Associate at the Schneider Institute for Health Policy. From 1985 to 1997, he served as a member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives where he co-chaired the Joint Committee on Health Care. In 1996, he led the successful campaign for passage of health access legislation to cover uninsured children, funded by new tobacco taxes, legislation which served as a model for the federal Children's Health Insurance Program.

He currently teaches at the Harvard School of Public Health and received a doctorate in public health from the School of Public Health at the University of Michigan and a master's in public administration from the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard.

Vincent DeMarco is President of the Maryland Citizen's Health Intiative, a coalition of organizations seeking to insure quality, affordable health care for all Marylanders. The Initiative was the lead organization working for Maryland's landmark Fair Share Health Care Law that requires large corporations to spend a fair amount on health care. Previously, he was Executive Director for the Maryland Children's Inititiative, which brought together more than 350 Maryland organizations to successfully promote an increase in the state cigarette tax. In addition, DeMarco has been active in the state and national anti-gun violence movement. As former Director of Community Outreach for Handgun Control, Inc., a national anti-gun violence group chaired by Sarah Brady, DeMarco created a coalition of more than 100 national organizations to defeat the gun lobby's efforts to repeal the national assault weapons ban.
