ABOUT EDWARD JOHNSON
At Columbus Public Health, our team tackles pressing challenges, from infant mortality to the opioid crisis. With over two years as Assistant Health Commissioner and Chief Health Equity Officer, I’ve championed neighborhood-based strategies, leading to palpable improvements in public health outcomes. Our Environmental Health Division ensures safety across thousands of local businesses, while the Addiction Services Division has witnessed a commendable reduction in overdose deaths, a testament to the effectiveness of our Columbus & Franklin County Addiction Plan.Spearheading the Center for Public Health Innovation, we’ve boldly declared racism a public health crisis, striving to eliminate racial health disparities. This mission-critical work is aimed at enhancing Columbus\' overall life expectancy and quality of life. My policy expertise, honed through years of dedicated service, and commitment to equity enable me to foster significant community engagement, ensuring that every resident of Columbus can thrive.
