About

Join the National Academy of Medicine (NAM) on November 29 as it hosts the first webinar in its Culture of Health Webinar Series.

Date/Time: November 29, 2018, 4:00 – 5:00 pm EST

The National Academies report Communities in Action: Pathways to Health Equityidentified 9 social determinants of health and how these determinants impact our health and the health of our communities. The report also defined health equity as the state in which everyone has the opportunity to attain full health potential and no one is disadvantaged from achieving this potential because of social position or any other socially defined circumstance.

Health equity is crucial and health inequity is costly. All actors in society—residents and community-based organizations, in partnership with businesses, state and local government, anchor and faith-based institutions—have the power to change the narrative and help promote health equity. But where and how can communities begin to unpack the social determinants of health in order to achieve health equity?

Join the NAM for a one hour webinar where field leaders will explore the meanings of both social determinants of health and health equity and what it means to apply these terms to enact change in the real world.

Webinar Objectives

Discuss how public health officials and others working in communities conceptualize the terms social determinants of health and health equity and how this knowledge is applied to their work.
Explore the Bay Area Regional Health Inequities Initiative’s (BARHII) Framework for Reducing Health Inequities and the Initiative’s approaches to working with partners to create healthy communities.
Provide an overarching perspective of how communities are addressing the social determinants of health and health equity while highlighting the City Heights neighborhood of San Diego, California.

Audience Q&A will give webinar attendees the opportunity to engage with the webinar speakers.

Otho Kerr, Partner of Encourage Capital, LLC and Advisor to the Culture of Health Program (Moderator)
Renae Badruzzmaman, Program Manager, Health Equity Investments and Business Systems Integration, Bay Area Regional Health Inequities Initiative(BARHII);
