Description
During the fourth webinar of the "Advancing Health Equity in Local Health Departments" series, we’ll discuss:
- What do we mean by “transformative change” and why this is essential to advancing health equity?
- How Douglas County (Omaha) is building a supportive cohort of local health equity leaders.
- How Minnesota is changing the narrative around health and confronting root causes of inequity.
- How HIP and others are building a health equity movement and supporting innovation.
