Detroit, please welcome our inaugural class of the Director's Fellows Cohort. Our health is intricate, shaped by policy, investment, and human action. Class #1 of our fellows bring fresh perspectives, ambitions, and curiosity that will help bring our Health in All Policies approach to life. This summer, we’re looking forward to the brilliant work they do on behalf of Detroiters. At DHD we believe in investing in the next generation of public health leaders and planting trees under whose shade Detroiters across every neighborhood will benefit from.
