Facilitated dialogue based on curated content will provide a forum for critical reflection on these issues. Participants will be equipped with the tools to continue these conversations and work toward making Minnesota healthcare an inclusive environment for all. 

This work is part of the MMA’s broader initiatives to address structural racism as a social driver of health, and to advance health equity in Minnesota.
