Black Women's Heath & Wellness Summit

@Marygrove College

Friday, April 23, 2010

4:00pm - 9:00pm

Black Women’s lives are at risk. Historically, we have had the worst health on nearly every health index when compared to other groups of women. And despite advances in medicine, Black Women continue to die needlessly and suffer unnecessarily from preventable and treatable causes & diseases.

Reports show that minority groups receive the poorest quality of care (even when they have health insurance), and that Black women receive the "poorest of the poor" care in comparison with White men, White women and even Black men.

Poor health is unacceptable and we must work to create equity in health on all fronts for all people regardless of race, ethnicity, gender and socio-economic status.

The focus of this Summit is to educate, inform and increase awareness concerning Black Women’s Health issues while creating a dialogue to promote changes in healthcare coverage, access and policy.
