COVID-19 and Healthcare for Marginalized Communities

In times of crisis, already-marginalized communities can be left behind as officials rush to respond to emergencies.
With the coronavirus pandemic ongoing and response measures rolling out daily, Seattle CityClub invites community members to a digital round-table with experts on health care in marginalized communities on Friday, March 27. The one-hour online event will feature updates on health care responses and realities in local minority, immigrant, and refugee communities, as well as what community members can do to help.

There is no cost to join this event, but attendance is limited to 100 viewers. Please register in advance; links to the webinar will be sent as we get closer to the event.
