Please join us on Monday, February 27, 2023 from 12pm to 1pm for a conversation with Brittany Taylor from the American Heart Association of Central New York. This conversation will explore the history and intersection of structural racism and its influence on health outcomes in Syracuse, NY. Our speaker will discuss lasting effects of red lining, bias, and how a system rigged against those living on the South Side continues to impact health and well-being.
Our speaker, Brittany Taylor, will speak based on her experience as a lifelong Syracuse resident and current Community Impact Director of the American Heart Association for Central New York. She has over 10 years working in the healthcare industry understanding how policy directly impacts our opportunities, access, and delivery for health-related services.
