Racial Justice and Health Equity Initiative at the Boston Public Health Commission
IISC’s Cynthia Silva Parker and Jen Willsea have been working with the Boston Public Health Commission on several tracks within their Racial Justice and Health Equity Initiative. Most recently, BPHC staff piloted a two day workshop for staff that makes the connections between racism, health outcomes and the role of a public health agency in promoting health equity. IISC guided the internal team that developed the workshop content and will be facilitating a training for trainers process for BPHC employees.
