Webinar: Effective and Innovative Solutions to Address Health Issues Affecting Refugees, Recent Immigrants, and Undereducated Adults

Wednesday, May 04, 2011 from 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM (CT)

The increasing population growth of racial and ethnic communities and linguistic groups, each with its own cultural traits and health profiles, presents a challenge to addressing critical health issues in this country. By understanding, valuing, and incorporating the cultural differences of America's diverse population and examining one's own health-related values and beliefs, we can implement and support a system that responds appropriately to, and directly serves the unique needs of populations whose cultures may be different from the prevailing culture (U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, Office of Minority Health).
