JOin US!
RETHINK, REFRAME, REFORM VIOLENCE.
This year's annual meeting will take place November 5-6, 2020 virtually on HOPIN!
​
This year our meeting is a collaboration between the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) School of Nursing, the California Preterm Birth Initiative (PTBI) & the Society of African American Public Health Issues (SAAPHI).
The theme of the pre-conference meeting is "Violence By Another Name: RETHINK - REFRAME - REFORM."
We invite you to join us for a dynamic conference highlighting some of the unique forms of violence that Black people face in the U.S. that adversely impact health. Our speakers will explore these concepts intersectionally to inform public health knowledge, program development, and policy decisions that can create equity. We call for attendees to Rethink, Reframe, and Reform our current conceptions of violence, their impacts on the health of Black people, and how research can be used to inform policy. This year SAAPHI is collaborating with the University of California at San Francisco (UCSF) School of Nursing and the UCSF California Preterm Birth Initiative (PTBI)
