Thought I'd share an upcoming UC Health Systemwide Grand Rounds on Two Innovative Models to Advance Health and Mental Health Equity. Registration is free, and not limited to folks in the UC system.
What I like about the programs is that the arise by working with the communities and seeking solutions that will work for them.

Two Innovative Models to Advance Health & Mental Health Equity
Health/mental health inequities for historically underserved populations have persisted for decades and have been particularly exacerbated during the COVID pandemic. New models of health service delivery are much needed to effectively increase the access to high quality care and advance health equity. Two innovative models of service delivery developed and implemented by the UC Davis Health Center for Reducing Health Disparities (CRHD) will be presented: 1) The Solano County Interdisciplinary Collaboration and Cultural Transformation Model (ICCTM) and 2) The Test-to-Treat Digital Health Equity Project (T2T DHE).
