Be Mindful of Your Health—with Gloria Wright

This week wraps up #MinorityHealthMonth. On the heels of #maternalhealthweek, this talk with Gloria shines an important spotlight on community resources in the Greater Chicagloand area & touches on also-important topics, like: - the social determinants of health (housing, poverty & schools to name a few) - the disproportionate statistics of #MaternalMortality facing African-American women in the U.S. - 6 key prompts for having a real conversation with women in need to be sure healthcare needs are truly being met by caregivers, health team members & community & family advocates (safety, trust & transparency, peer support, collaboration & mutuality, empowerment, culturally appropriateness) + what these mean & look like in action - how YOU can help, wherever you fall on this issue You'll also learn just what a #communitybabyshower is & how/where you or those you love can attend.
