Health Equity Committee Meeting

Business Meeting for Health Equity Committee – Open to anyone interested in attending. Contact Amber Prater at healthequity@healthcareforallohioans.org for link.

The purpose of the Healthcare for All Ohioans Health Equity Committee is to increase public awareness and eliminate cultural barriers by educating communities and health providers about cultural health inequity and how it negatively impacts the public, individuals, and families health status, especially among people of color and immigrant populations. We will achieve this purpose by:

• Conducting culturally specific health equity workshops.
• Performing statewide quarterly presentations on health inequity outcomes.
• Promoting legislative advocacy via HFAO principles of equity.
• Attending conventions/symposiums on locally held health equity events.
• Conducting health equity workshop training sessions.
• Establishing partnership with HFAO’s culturally specific coalitions and community-based organizations.
