Two Webinars from Moving Health Care Upstream and ChangeLab Solutions
You’re invited to join Moving Health Care Upstream & ChangeLab Solutions for a free, two-part webinar series about realistic, innovative local and institutional policy strategies that hospitals can use to address the root causes of asthma and food insecurity.
The webinars will cover the nuts and bolts of using policy strategies to further your program’s impact and provide real-world, current examples. We’ll dig into what local and organizational policy looks like: ordinances, zoning, and more. Remember, it’s not just legislation!
