Beginning in June 2023, the journal will reach a new audience: SAGE Publishing, United Family Healthcare (UFH), and HSS have agreed to translate the HSS Journal into Chinese and it will be distributed in China. Each issue will include 5 articles and 6 abstracts. The Chinese translations will be published both online and in print and will include introductions written by the Chinese editor. A Chinese editorial board will also be formed. The 2-year agreement will allow for 4 translated issues.
