healthcare for all (hcfa)
Asian Women for Health (AWFH) is proud to partner with Healthcare for All (HCFA), an organization dedicated to sharing information about the Vaccine Equity Initiative and resources about health issues that affect our community.
JOIN US FOR OUR UPCOMING LUNCH & LEARN
Health outcomes within Asian American subgroups are frequently lumped together, obscuring the distinct experiences and inequalities accentuated by the COVID-19 crisis.
In this presentation, we will highlight preliminary findings from community-driven projects like the FILLED Project and The SEA US HEAR US Study. These observational insights offer valuable guidance for community leaders, policymakers, and public health researchers seeking to craft targeted interventions after the pandemic. These findings aim to empower further community-driven projects and enact effective strategies for addressing health inequities by spotlighting disparities from local communities to broader societal contexts. 🗓️ Save the date: May 24th, 2024, 1-2PM EST 📍Location: Online on Zoom 👥 Register: awfh.org/AAPIHealth We hope to see you there! |
