Dear Colleagues:

 

Today, CDC is releasing the attached Public Health Action Plan to
Integrate Mental Health Promotion and Mental Illness Prevention with
Chronic Disease, 2011-2015.  This document highlights the importance of
mental health promotion and mental illness prevention in a public health
context.  The document also can be accessed at the CDC mental health web
page at http://www.cdc.gov/mentalhealth/ .

 

These developments are very important for our field, and they reflect
the very first efforts to integrate positive mental health into public
health interventions.
