eTo achieve health equity takes a collective effort. Please join GRAAHI, Thursday, June 20, 2019, as we celebrate community/organizational leaders in the fight for health and equity for all.
The annual event is moving to a new location this year and will be hosted at Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park. “It’s the perfect backdrop for our event, symbolizing the growth we are nurturing in our pursuit of health equity,” said Micah Foster, executive director.
As one of the primary fundraising events for the organization, the annual gala highlights and honors individuals and organizations who are making an impact on the community. From local champions to state-wide health systems, GRAAHI is shining a spotlight on their work to achieve health equity.
WHAT IS HEALTH EQUITY?
Across the nation, gaps in health outcomes are persistent and increasing. Health equity means everyone has a fair and just opportunity to be healthier, regardless of race. Health equity means affording everyone access to good jobs, homes and schools. It requires a concerted, community-wide effort to increase opportunities to be healthier for everyone—especially those whose obstacles are greatest.
Please join us, as an attendee or sponsor, and let’s celebrate the partnerships helping to eliminate bias disparities in healthcare services outcomes for African Americans!
