The Active Women’s Health Initiative (AWHI) kicked off on April 20th 2018 and is Co-Directed by Johanna Hoch and Mary Lloyd Ireland. The Advisory Board met for their first official meeting to discuss research and community outreach opportunities specific to the AWHI. The day concluded with a visit to Keeneland and an official launch party. The mission of the AWHI is to optimize health outcomes for women across the lifespan, with an emphasis on those women with a history of musculoskeletal injury.
