Welcome to the Health Equity Work Group! If you are currently a member of the HEWG, we welcome you as well.

To begin the year, we will be holding our Fall General meeting on Wednesday, October 3rd from 11:30-12:45 p.m. (Location: Moos Tower 2-520).  

The Center for Health Equity at the Minnesota Department of Health will be guiding a discussion of the latest Statewide Health Assessment. Our discussion of the assessment will focus on how “belonging” shapes our health, at both the individual and community levels.

In preparation for the activity and discussion, please review the following document and video prior to the meeting:

General meetings are open to all members, including faculty, staff and students. Light snacks and refreshments will be served. Please RSVP if you are able to attend the meeting. If you have questions, feel free to email the HEWG RA at alema044@umn.edu.

We look forward to seeing you at our Fall General Meeting!
