Sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce of Greater Philadelphia

Virtual Event: November 16, 2020 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM

The purpose of this forum is to focus on the improvement of population health in underrepresented and underserved communities.

Eliminating racial disparities in health care is vital to pushing our region forward toward an inclusive recovery. Historically, communities of color and residents of low-income neighborhoods face poor health outcomes due to a variety of factors, such as higher environmental exposures and a lack of access to quality care. The COVID-19 crisis has further exacerbated these poor outcomes as many workers have been faced with the impossible decision to protect their health or their livelihood.

Join us for a conversation to better understand potential solutions to these inequalities and hear industry experts discuss the ways in which we can make quality health care easily accessible for all neighborhoods of Philadelphia.
