God was and is liberating a people and establishing shalom among them. Health, as it is seen in the Biblical narrative, is a communal property, including the idea that our wellness is affected by the wellness of “our neighbor”. However, our notion of health - especially in medical professions - is typically reductionistic, leading to phenomena such as extreme life expectancy gaps in our communities. What is our role in oppressed and marginalized communities? How are we joyful co-creators of the manna society God is creating? Join us as we trace this narrative and reflect on true health and our role in it today.
Racism continues to impact our lives and culture. Can we individually be a part of understanding, healing, reconciliation, and redemption? Join us for a time of honest review and the pursuit of a hopeful future.
What do you do if you’re passionate about diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging at your health center but have limited resources and support for implementation? In this session we will explore the key areas to build a foundation for sustainable DEIB that aligns with your organization’s vision and mission. Co-Presenter Alyssa Vasquez
