Our History
Created and led by the Coalition for Better Health, the Preventive Health Network was launched in 2022 to train healthcare professionals to become certified Preventive Health Specialists. This innovative work utilizes evidence-based behavior-change strategies in clinical settings to reduce obesity and tobacco use and to support and encourage routine preventive care. The program is led by partners in healthcare systems, higher education, insurance, and major corporations, all working to improve health outcomes.
