“Nothing about us, without us” means valuing lived experience.
Community members are an integral piece of policymaking. Each year Health Equity Solutions hosts Community Conversations to learn what health equity issues are most important to people in Connecticut. Participants discussed what they see as most important when thinking of health equity and health care, and how, if at all, they would like to get involved in this health equity work. Feedback from these sessions is used to build our yearly policy agenda.
To date, we have engaged 870+ participants across 47+ Connecticut towns/cities.
Whether you participated in community conversations, shared with your networks, interacted with the posts, or provided feedback without attending a session, we truly appreciate YOU! Your partnership makes this work possible. Thank you.
