A letter taken fromA Chronicle of Progress :

On behalf of the Marion County Health Department, I am proud to share this report on the accomplishments of the Asthma Alliance of Indianapolis. As director of the Marion County Health Department, I appreciate the partnerships that make the alliance a vibrant health resource for Marion County residents.

This report chronicles and celebrates the progress made by the alliance in educating our community about asthma, how to manage asthma and how to create and sustain environments that protect all of us, and especially those with asthma. The emphasis placed on education by the alliance has been especially beneficial to those who might otherwise not have access to information on asthma symptoms and the variety of available treatment options.

Since 1997, the Asthma Alliance of Indianapolis has dedicated itself to providing critical educational services to Marion County residents. As we approach our first decade in the community, there remains much work in ensuring our families have access to information and services to maintain control of this chronic disease.
