Summary

Over and over, health departments are asking: “What strategic steps can we take to advance health equity at our health department?” Check out the webinar materials to hear success stories from across the United States to answer this question and learn about our Health Equity Guide.

‍We hosted this 4-part webinar series with national experts and local health departments to discuss their work to advance health equity. Each webinar focused on a set of strategic practices that health departments can take to pursue a wall-to-wall transformation of how they work internally, with communities, and alongside other government agencies.Organized by Human Impact Partners, these webinars were co-sponsored with the Government Alliance on Race and Equity, the National Collaborative for Health Equity, and NACCHO’s Health Equity and Social Justice Committee.
