Research shows that health equity is critical to building a happy, prosperous nation, but that doesn’t mean a one-size-fits-all approach is the answer. Join the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation for a webinar with national and local leaders working to create opportunities for all residents. You’ll hear about the ways a new definition can help us advance solutions and measure progress, and hear directly from communities working to ensure that everyone can be as healthy as possible.
Speakers include:
- Tracy Orleans, Senior Program Officers/Senior Scientist, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
- Paula Braveman, Director of the Center on Social Disparities in Health, University of California, San Francisco
- Shoshanna Spector, Executive Director, Indianapolis Congregation Action Network (IndyCAN)
- Bill Lovett, Executive Director, New Jersey YMCA State Alliance
