2021 VIRTUAL NATIONAL CONFERENCE ON HEALTH COMMUNICATION, MARKETING AND MEDIA

Social Determinants of Health: From Barriers to Opportunities

Thursday, August 26, 2021 2:30 - 3:30 PM (EDT)

TOPIC DESCRIPTION & OVERVIEW

Do you find social determinants of health (SDOH) to be an input, or a barrier, in communication? As CDC shares online, “[SDOH] are conditions in the places where people live, learn, work, and play that affect a wide range of health and quality-of life-risks and outcomes.” During this “fire-side” chat, we will share real-life examples of organizations pushing past SDOHs as a barrier of communication, understanding how they can be addressed to impact public health, and utilizing communication as an integral component of interventions.
