Achieving Health Justice Together

We’re excited to invite you to the first event in our new *virtual* Innovation Summit series, “Achieving Health Justice Together” on November 20th.

Innovation in health care isn’t just about medical advancements: to truly innovate, we must focus on eliminating access and affordability barriers to those medical advancements. In “Achieving Health Justice Together,” we will discuss health justice as a community-led movement for power-building and transformational change, building on the work have done together at our past events.

If you enjoyed Creating a Shared Future, Learning From Communities, Identity the Health Care Experience and Redefining Health Literacy, this event will be a natural continuation of those ideas, bringing you the tools, resources and background you need to make the changes you want to see in the world.
