Learning Event Support: Health and Harmony

Engaging Wisconsin healthcare professionals on health equity topics

Full Project Name:Learning Event Support: Health and HarmonyPrimary Community Organization:Wisconsin Medical Society, Inc.Award Amount:$5,000
Award Date
April2023

Project Description Narrative:


Although Wisconsin ranks highly in overall healthcare nationally, the state performs poorly in providing for the health of minority populations. Supporting education and growth surrounding JEDI (justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion) for all healthcare professionals is critical to improving health equity in our state.

With funding support from AHW, event speakers will deliver presentations on the social determinants of health equity, strategies for applying JEDI to practice and medical decision-making, and recommendations for how to address and dismantle ignorance.
