Health Progress authors are recognized for their work. Some have won awards, and articles are widely distributed. We fill numerous requests for reprints from health professions programs, and articles are distributed to policymakers on Capitol Hill, bishops, and organizations' staffs and trustees. The journal is included in the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature and Catholic Periodicals Index . Feature articles in each issue explore a variety of contemporary concerns.
Regular columns provide current information on communication strategies, health policy, and law.
First, and most important, analyze the topic you want to cover. Be sure it is of vital importance to at least one segment of the journal's diverse audience. Keep in mind that the article need not be written directly for chief executives, but it must familiarize them with information they need to understand. The article should relate mission and values to the subject at hand. Outlining the article may help you ensure that its ideas follow a logical progression.
