Amplifying Black Voices: Overcoming Institutionalized Racial Discrimination in Integrated Care

In honor of Black History Month, join us Thursday, Feb. 15, 12-1 p.m. ET for Amplifying Black Voices: Overcoming Institutionalized Racial Discrimination in Integrated Care. This empowering panel discussion celebrates Black excellence through resilience, resistance and triumph over institutionalized racial discrimination, particularly in the context of health equity and leadership in integrated care settings. We will honor the complexities of being a prominent leader who identifies as Black or African American while experiencing various forms of discrimination, including racism, and its impact on mental health and career possibilities in the field.

Our esteemed panelists will delve into the complexities and challenges faced by Black leaders within institutional settings, including the “pet to threat” phenomenon, as well as discuss solutions and strategies to address systemic and individual prejudices.

By amplifying the voices of those with this lived experience, we hope to inspire and empower individuals, especially in Black and African American communities, to continue the fight for equity and inclusion in health care leadership and beyond, driving positive change toward a more equitable future for all.
