Title: Social Determinants and Health Equity
Date & Time: 1/31/2023, 10AM-12PM
Description:
Our health is determined in part by access to social and economic opportunities; resources and supports available in our homes, neighborhoods, and communities; and the nature of our social interactions and relationships.
This interactive two-hour virtual training will examine factors in which people are born, work, live, play, pray and age known as social determinants of health (SDH). Participants will examine social and structural factors like racism, gender identity, economic status, housing, education that impact clients and communities in accessing care services. Attendees will be introduced to approaches and strategies in which they will learn to identify and address the SDH in their communities, increase health equities and improve health outcomes.
Learning Objectives:
1) Define social determinants of health.
2) Describe the connection between health disparities and social determinants of health.
3) Describe the connection between social determinants and accessing care services.
4) Identify at least one strategy to address social determinants to promote healthcare access.
