Activity Overview: The Frank M. Norfleet Forum for the Advancement of Health was established at UTHSC in 1979 through a designated fund within the Community Foundation of Greater Memphis. The mission of the Norfleet Forum is to focus on the improvement of the health status of the citizens who reside in Memphis / Shelby County, the State of Tennessee, the nation, and the world, through concern for effective health policies and organization. The 2024 Norfleet Forum focuses on promoting safe and stable relationships – the power of positive childhood experiences on resilience against toxic stress for the betterment of our community and improved patient outcomes.
