Webinar: Racism in Public Health

Join Seattle CityClub on Friday, November 5 and Friday, November 12, as we explore the consequences of racism in our public health systems and innovative solutions to address it. Community experts and healthcare professionals will discuss how racism impacts public health, the role of anti-racism education, outreach and legislation, and specific and actionable strategies that communities and individuals can adopt in order to step away from a standard of healthcare for some towards a more equitable future of “Healthcare for All.”
