Health Forward is proud to sponsor the American Public Square’s dinner and panel discussion on social determinants.
Conditions in places where people live, work and play affect a wide range of health risks and outcomes. These conditions are known as social determinants of health and differences in health are striking in communities with poor social determinants of health. A panel of experts will discuss these conditions and the policies and programs for addressing them.
