https://hollywoodhealthandsociety.org/about-us/advisory-board Founded by Norman Lear, and part of the USC Norman Lear Annenberg Center, HHS&S “provides the entertainment industry with accurate and up-to-date information for storylines on health, safety and national security. With generous support from funders that include the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, The SCAN Foundation, N Square, the California Health Care Foundation, Open Society Foundations, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, John Pritzker Family Fund, LUNGevity, and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, HH&S recognizes the profound impact that entertainment has on audience knowledge and behavior.

In partnership with its funding agencies, we offer several resources, including quick facts, briefings and consultations with experts, case examples, panel discussions about timely health issues, a quarterly HH&S newsletter, and an expanding list of tip sheets written specifically for writers and producers. Tip sheets are available here, on the CDC website, and on the NCI website as well.” See: https://hollywoodhealthandsociety.org/about-us/overview
