2015 Paper Series

In 2015 the Wyandotte Health Foundation commissioned a series of papers exploring the health issues and possible means of improving them from Anthony Wellever, Associate Professor at the University of Kansas Medical Center, to inform its strategic planning process. The three-part series and the bibliographies are posted below. This series was funded in partnership with the REACH Healthcare Foundation and the Health Care Foundation of Greater Kansas City (now Health Forward Foundation).
