Date & Time

Description
President Bill Clinton will be addressing the Rx Summit at 6:30 pm on April 4, 2018.
William Jefferson Clinton, the first Democratic president in six decades to be elected twice, led the United States to the longest economic expansion in American history, including the creation of more than 22 million jobs.
After leaving the White House, President Clinton established the Clinton Foundation in order to continue working on the causes he cared about. Since its founding, the Foundation has endeavored to help build more resilient communities by developing and implementing programs that improve people’s health, strengthen local economies, and protect the environment.
President Clinton and the Clinton Foundation have been at the forefront of the fight against the opioid epidemic since 2012. The Clinton Health Matters Initiative works to save lives, alleviate suffering and reduce the stigma facing victims and families of opioid use disorder.
The Foundation provides training and resources to communities to fight addiction; brings partners together to discuss and implement solutions; and works to prevent overdose deaths by making the life-saving opioid-reversal drug, naloxone, more widely accessible and at a lower cost.
Above all, President Clinton has always believed that we can do more together than any of us can do on our own. In 2005, he founded the Clinton Global Initiative to foster partnerships among governments, businesses, nongovernmental organizations and private citizens to turn good ideas into measurable results. To date, over 3,600 CGI commitments have already improved the lives of more than 435 million people in more than 180 countries. CGI’s work continues through these ongoing commitments and through the Clinton Global Initiative University which this year, celebrates 10 years of bringing together college and university students from every corner of the globe to turn good ideas into action.
President Clinton was born on August 19, 1946, in Hope, Arkansas. He and his wife Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton have one daughter, Chelsea; two grandchildren, and live in Chappaqua, New York.
