Description

We know health equity should be central to the work we do and incorporated into our organizations, our work with others, and ourselves, but it doesn’t always happen. This interactive training will explore key concepts in centering health equity into our work, enhancing our cultural proficiency, understanding complex factors influencing community health, and examining the historical and policy influences shaping our communities today. Together we will explore ways to apply these concepts to our work that will foster our mission of creating healthy environments for all.
