Upcoming legislative session could shape public health policies

More from this show

In anticipation of the upcoming legislative session, public officials may focus on prevention and policies that protect population health statewide.

Will Humble, Executive Director at the Arizona Public Health Association, joined “Arizona Horizon” to discuss what to expect from this Legislative session.

In recent years, there has been a lack of residential options for patients with mental illness. Humble said he hopes to see an expansion in residential and community treatment for these patients.

Humble also discussed health care costs, health perspectives on emerging speed limits and more.
