ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

The Community Guide is a collective effort of many people from those who first proposed the idea of a Guide to

Community Preventive Services in the early 1990s to those who continue to work every day to expand evidence-based

recommendations and findings to improve the health and safety of our communities through The Community Guide

In addition to our Community Preventive Services Task Force members and liaisons past and present we thank all of

our partners authors researchers staff and friends of the Guide for their contributions and ongoing support We cant

possibly thank everyone enough-or name every person whose contribution to the Guide makes our work possible in

the acknowledgements that follow-but please know that we sincerely express our gratitude to everyone associated

with the Guide past present and future
