Conversations on Health

 

At Healthy Tri-County, we are committed to addressing the underlying causes of health. Our "Conversations on Health" initiative is designed to foster meaningful dialogue, promote understanding, and drive actionable change within our communities.

For our first conversation of 2025, we are excited to welcome Mandy Halloran (learn more about Mandy) from the Able South Carolina! Her talk entitled, "Rethinking Disability: Combatting Medical Ableism Through Disability Justice" explores healthcare experiences and outcomes for disabled individuals and how to create more quality care. 

We hope you'll join us on March 20th from 9:00 - 11:00 at Royal Missionary Baptist church for this important discussion.

About the Initiative

Our Conversations on Health bring together community members, health professionals, policymakers, and more to explore and address the deep-rooted issues that contribute to health differences. We provide a welcoming and inclusive space for participants to share their experiences, insights, and solutions.

What to Expect

  • Engaging Speaker: Engage in thought-provoking discussions led by experts in the field of community health. These forums provide a platform for participants to ask questions, share experiences, and gain new perspectives.

  • Networking: We believe that we are only stronger together. That is why at all of our events we include ample time for participants to connect with other like-minded professionals so we can continue to improve our work united. 

Our Goals

  • Raise Awareness: Highlight the impact of health differences and underlying causes of health in our communities on healthcare access and outcomes.

  • Amplify Voices: Ensure that the perspectives and experiences of often overlooked  communities are heard and valued.

  • Promote Action: Develop and share actionable strategies to address health differences within our region.
