Population Health Spotlight: The Social Chasm that Blocks the Path to Sustainability...

Wednesday, October 14, 2015

12:15 PM-1:15 PM

Due to unforeseen circumstances, this talk has been canceled and will be replaced by "Autism as a Public Health Challenge."
 
 
 Title: The Social Chasm that Blocks the Path to Sustainability and What Public Health Can Do About It. The US is a society riven by divisions of class and race. This fracture is so significant, it destabilizes the functioning of the whole society. It is impossible to create a sustainable society without fixing the social chasms and creating solidarity within the nation and with people in other nations.
 
Speaker: Mindy Fullilove, MD, MS is a professor of Psychiatry at the Mailman Columbia School of Public Health and author of “Root Shock: How Tearing Up City Neighborhoods Hurts America and What We Can Do About It”
