The Nebraska Department of Health & Human Services’ Office of Health Disparities and Health Equity & the Minority Health Disparities Initiative at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln are proud to announce that we are jointly hosting the 2021 Nebraska Conference on Health Equity (NECHE)!

The Nebraska Conference on Health Equity is a call to action on health equity and access. This conference will address the role that social determinants of health play when caring for and working with minoritized populations in Nebraska. Presenters will review local, regional, and national disparity data, share important tools and community resources, and provide strategies to improve awareness and outcomes. Participants will have the opportunity to learn about and strategize with experts to improve health outcomes for underserved communities in Nebraska.

Please save the data to join us for the inaugural, virtual Nebraska Conference on Health Equity on April 22 & 23, 2021, from 8:00 am - 4:30 pm. The conference will feature keynotes by Dr. Donald Warne, Dr. Andrea Marpillero Colomina, Dr. Marco Barker, and Lori Seibel, with breakout sessions from a variety of perspectives and a wide range of disciplines. This is a great opportunity to learn more about various healthcare equity issues from diverse perspectives, and help design solutions!
