Bush Appoints Another Contraceptive Foe to Head Family Planning Office

Once again, President George Bush has appointed an opponent of women¢s reproductive rights to head the Office of Population Affairs in the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

Susan Orr, who has a Ph.D. but is not a physician, will be the acting HHS deputy assistant secretary, administering $283 million in yearly Title X grants to provide contraception and other preventive health services for low-income families. The office serves more than 5 million U.S. women each year.

In 2001, when Orr was senior director for marriage and families at the right-wing Family Research Council, she expressed delight when Bush proposed dropping a requirement that federal employees¢ health insurance cover more than one type of birth control. "We¢re quite pleased," said Orr, according to The Washington Post, "because fertility is not a disease. It¢s not a medical necessity that you have [birth control]."

Orr, who was previously an associate commissioner in HHS¢ Administration for Children and Families, replaces Eric Keroack, whose appointment was deplored by family planning advocates. Keroack had previously been medical director of an anti-abortion Christian crisis pregnancy center that opposed distributing contraceptives. He resigned just five months into his tenure after receiving notice from the Massachusetts medical board that it was investigating complaints of unprofessional behavior and writing prescriptions to non-patients in his private practice

Hello all,=20

=20

A colleague asked me to post the following to the HEDIR. If you're interested in participating please contact Bill Killam at the email below. =20

=20

=20

=20

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) needs your help evaluating the usability and efficacy of Geographic Information System (GIS) Maps utilized in the newly released publication, Cancer Communication Health Information National Trends Survey 2003 and 2005 (http://hints.cancer.gov/docs/hints_report.pdf). As compensation, should you agree to participate, you will receive a $25 Starbucks gift card.

=20

In case you are unfamiliar with the Cancer Communication Health Information National Trends Survey 2003 and 2005 Report, it offers a high-level summary of findings from NCI's 2003 and 2005 Health Information National Trends Survey (HINTS) on health communication and cancer communication. The GIS Maps in the Report provide users with visual data of cancer-related knowledge variables, such as media exposure and usage, across geographic regions.=20

=20

We are asking people working in cancer-related fields who may or may not be familiar with GIS technology or the report itself to participate in this review. Your participation would include a short interview and question and answer session and would not exceed one hour. Interviews will be held during the APHA Annual Meeting, either on the first or last day of the conference (Sunday, November 4th and Wednesday, November 7th). However, if you are interested in participating but cannot attend these schedules sessions, alternative arrangements can be made.

=20

If you are interested, please contact Bill Killam, the researcher involved in this effort, preferably by October 26th, 2007:=20
