Our speaker for the May 6, 2014 breakfast meeting is Anna C. Dragsbaek, JD. See link for more about our speaker Anna became aware of the critical role that vaccines play in the health of communities when working in a rural hospital as a Peace Corps volunteer in Sierra Leone, West Africa. She later pursued and completed her law degree, specializing in Public Health Law, at the University of Houston while working as Manager of the Immunization Project at Texas Children's Hospital.
In 2008, Anna became President and CEO of The Immunization Partnership, a nonprofit which promotes the importance of immunization through advocacy and education to individuals, community partners and healthcare providers. Anna is very committed to the local and international community, holding past and present board positions on the American Immunization Registry Association, The Confederation of Meningitis Organization, American Leadership Forum, and the Texas Lyceum. She has been published in several peer reviewed journals, and has received numerous awards, including the CDC Childhood Immunization Champion Award for promoting and fostering childhood immunizations. She was also the recipient of the 2013 Episcopal Health Foundation award for Community Health Leadership. Anna is the proud parent of two boys, who are both fully immunized.
