5th Annual Stand Against Racism events April 27-April 29

The Department of Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion and the YWCA invite you to join us for our 5th Annual Stand Against Racism events April 27-April 29.  This year’s theme is From Declarations to Change: Addressing Racism as a Public Health Crisis.  Public health is, and always has been, central to racial justice work. This year our theme is especially pertinent as our nation continues to face the intersecting public health crises of COVID-19 and racism. Understanding the economic and social determinants of health and how racism impacts public health outcomes is critical to uprooting systemic inequity in communities of color.
