On behalf of the Rollins School of Public Health and the Goizueta Business School of Emory University, we appreciate your participation in the 2000 Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Community Service Awards. Our celebration was festive and academically enriching.

We brought you an exciting program focusing on the theme, "Building on the King Legacy through Business, Health Care and Community Development: Approaches for Diversity in the 21st Century." The centerpiece of the program was a panel discussion, featuring distinguished leaders of the metropolitan Atlanta community in the areas of business and health care. They discussed how diverse groups of people can come together to strive toward important change and hopeful visions, working to address important contemporary issues such as health care and economic renewal.

Our celebration culminated in the recognition of individuals, community organizations, agencies, healthcare systems, and businesses that have significantly promoted diversity in metro Atlanta.

May we all join to raise Dr. King's ideals to great heights in the new millenium.

Sincerely,
Vicki Stover Hertzberg, Ph.D.    &    Earl Hill, Senior Lecturer
Co-Chairs, Martin Luther King, Jr., 2000 Celebration Committee

Co-sponsored by the Rollins School of Public Health & Emory University Goizueta Business School.
