Bridging Identity & Inclusivity to
Create Health Equity
A CHA Webinar Series
We are called to build true health equity. In the face
of COVID-19 testing, treatment and vaccine distribution, and as a part of our
ongoing work to end systemic racism, we must look internally and externally.
This four-event webinar series will look at Catholic
identity, other faith traditions, unconscious bias and discrimination in caregiver
interactions and share best practices happening now to create opportunities
for participants to gain inspiration and information. Working together, we can
improve Catholic health care, build right and just relationships with our
communities and advocate for change to end health disparities and systemic
racism.
As a part of CHA’s strategic
plan to address health disparities and end systemic racism, this webinar series is
taking the place of CHA’s biennial System Mission Leadership Forum. Building health
equity is a work that will take each and every associate, from volunteers
at welcome desks to cooks in residences, and so this webinar is not
only for mission leaders, but an opportunity for all those who want to more deeply
understand how Catholic health care can be transformed to achieve health
equity and help end systemic racism.
