Public Health Epidemiology Conversations

PHEC 346: Health Equity And Developmental Disability Awareness


Listen Later

How are you leading and engaging in health equity and developmental disability awareness conversations with the communities you serve? March is Developmental Disability Awareness Month, and we brought this topic to a panel of professionals in our recent Public Health Roundtable discussion with Linda Gordon, M.D., MPH, and Ericka Horne, MPH, CHES.

We share that conversation with you in this episode, where you'll gain insight into the need to increase access to information, increase developmental disability screening, improve morbidity, and increase data gathering.

We also touch on the importance of combating stigma and supporting the development of emergency preparedness plans that are inclusive of populations with developmental disabilities. The opportunities that public health professionals have to make an impact in these areas is also explored.

For all this and more, tune in!
