New Webinar: The High Human Stakes of Ongoing Support for the Community Health Workforce

Thursday, November 17, 2022 2:00-3:30pm ET

Community-based workforces and organizations who share in the worldviews, practical struggles, and cultural pride of the racial and ethnic communities they serve have been key to advancing health equity in the United States. They have also been indispensable in closing the gaps in health and human services for the populations whom the pandemic has hurt in uneven numbers and intensity. They have, for instance, worked diligently to overcome material and attitudinal barriers to COVID-19 vaccination coverage within local Black and Hispanic/Latino communities.

We invite you to hear from local community leaders and their CommuniHealth research partners about:

· How this human-centered, community health infrastructure continues to exercise unmatched skills during the pandemic response,

· What further advances in health and wellbeing can be had if these local champions receive sustained support going forward, and

Webinar Wed. Sept 29: How Can the Federal Government Help Meet the Unique Health Needs of Rural Communities in Pandemics

Submitted by mike kraft on Wed, 2022-09-28 10:07

Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: Leaving No One Behind: How Can the Federal Government Help Meet the Unique Health Needs of Rural Communities in Pandemics. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted disparities in medical readiness between urban and rural communities. Rural communities often faced daunting challenges during the pandemic due to fewer resources and less manpower. As a result, health outcomes for COVID-19 patients in rural communities tended to be worse than their urban counterparts. Improving workforce training, medical resources, disease prevention, general wellness, and healthcare access in rural communities is necessary to bolster national security and pandemic preparedness.
