Fairness First Over the Years

As we start another year, we’re reflecting on where we came from and thinking about where we’re headed.

 

The Fairness First Campaign is for Everyone!

Communicating health research back to communities is an important part of the research process. We have designed Fairness First Campaign activities to be relevant and engaging to anyone who wants to learn about health research in Southwestern communities.

We welcome you to become a part of our Fairness First Campaign, connect with others, and help shape how NAU and communities work together to advance health research in the southwest.
