City leadership through a public health lens

Mayors are on the front line of many public health issues, from climate change to homelessness to racial and economic inequalities, gun violence and crime. The job requires a distinct set of leadership skills and an intense focus on community well-being. We’ve convened four city leaders who will walk us through case studies from their experience as they responded to crises and set public policy in New York City, Houston, Tulsa, and Columbia, SC.
