Stand Against Racism Panel Discussion

Addressing Racism as a Public Health Crisis

May 27th, 2021 – 9:00 to 10:00 am

Centuries of racism in our country have had a profound negative impact on communities of color. In response, Cincinnati and Hamilton County have officially declared racism a public health crisis.

Join us as we explore and discuss local health disparities and policy efforts you can support! Additionally, you will walk away with a clearer understanding and tools that you can use to work toward a more equitable world.

Registration for this event is now closed.
