We are excited to announce our new five-part webinar series focusing on education, health, community, race, and economic development and how they relate to strengthening your welcoming work. The second webinar in the series is "Welcoming + Health Equity." Creating a welcoming community for immigrants can help to create a more healthy community for everyone, and such efforts to create health equity ensure that immigrants and refugees can participate fully and belong. This webinar will discuss the advancements in health equity over the past 10 years while examining the social determinants of health, addressing health disparities among immigrants and refugees, and highlighting the importance of using a health equity lens in welcoming work.
