Tuberculosis Prevention Partnership |
|
The Tuberculosis Prevention Partnership for Santa Clara County (TPP)
was established in March 1999 to help prevent Tuberculosis (TB)
infection and disease in Santa Clara County (SCC) by building
effective community partnerships.
|
|
The Co-Chairs of TPP and representatives of its three
lead agencies are Margo Leathers-Sidener, Executive
Director of Breathe California,
Michelle Lew, President and Chief
Operating Officer of Asian Americans for Community Involvement.
TPP members are comprised of a cross section of
community-based organizations, agencies and
individuals concerned about TB in their local communities.
|
|
Under the leadership of the Co-Chairs, TPP members joined
together in a one-year planning process that identified
strategic issues impacting TB at the local level and
developed strategies to prevent TB in SCC. In March 2000,
TPP released "A strategic plan to prevent tuberculosis
in Santa Clara County."
