The Bureaus of Family Health and Nutrition and Community Health and Prevention are offering two-day workshops on Racial Equity hosted by Nashira Baril, Abigail Ortiz, Bayard Love, and Meenakshi Verma-Agrawal. The objectives of the workshops are to:
Increase familiarity with racial equity and public health frameworks
Provide exposure to and practice with tools that can be applied in everyday work.
Practice making the work meaningful on an individual level by integrating principles not only into the head, but also into the heart for sustained racial equity work.
Develop a shared understanding of how this workshop aligns with broader health equity work in the Bureaus and the Department.
This workshop is on Thursday, July 19 and Friday, July 20 from 9:00am-4:30pm. Attendance is required for the full two days.
