One’s health is likely a priority for all citizens. Unfortunately, not everyone has the opportunity to access the resources that will enable them to achieve their optimal well-being. A wide array of factors can influence a person’s ability to obtain healthcare and access to the tools that help form healthy habits. In her upcoming CivicCon event, Jill Miller will talk about the possibility of bridging health inequalities in hospitals and beyond.
