6. On Thursday, September 14, 2017, the Heinz Family Foundation honored pediatrician and public health advocate Dr. Mona Hanna-Attisha by making her the recipient of the 22nd Heinz Award in the public policy category. The accolade includes an unrestricted cash award of $250,000.

Although state officials maintained that the water was safe, Hanna-Attisha was not convinced.
