Join us for NACDD’s first general member webinar for 2021 focused on support for your work in chronic disease prevention and control during COVID-19 – specifically looking at equity for those who are most impacted. This pandemic has shown that Black people, Latinx, and Native Americans/Indigenous Americans are at greatest risk of becoming severely ill and dying from COVID-19, and we, as an association, are committed to changing that reality.
Please join us for this 90-minute webinar that is jam-packed with tools, fresh ideas and strategies to help you face some of the largest challenges in your work today. You’ll learn about:
• What the most recent COVID-19 data shows in terms of disparities and how you can easily access and use a custom tool developed by Gallup to clearly see your state and community data as you make informed decisions.
• NACDD Board president Susan Kansagra’s “President’s Challenge” regarding racial equity – as well as how her state (NC) is addressing equity in COVID-19 testing and vaccination.
• Brand new custom-messaging “spots” from CBS Broadcasting around managing chronic disease during a pandemic. You will soon have access to these spots for use in your own state.
• Technical assistance opportunities to support states in promoting physical activity access, improved nutrition security and social connectedness for people and communities most impacted by COVID-19.
