Where someone lives, how much money they make and the color of their skin can have a significant impact on their overall health. And in Wisconsin, this is especially true. The University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute gave the state a “D” for its health disparities in a recent report.
A Wisconsin Health News panel on Jan. 14 in Milwaukee will discuss efforts underway to achieve health equity, and the challenges that remain.
Panelists include:
- Vincent Lyles, Vice President Community Relations, Advocate Aurora Health
- Jeanette Kowalik, Commissioner of Health, City of Milwaukee
- Additional panelists to be announced soon.
