Leaders have taken the reins to change health outcomes in the Austin-Travis County Black community – creating new food access routes, a men’s clinic, and peri- and post-natal maternal support – all in order directly to improve SDoH factors and individual and household health outcomes. Join an amazing panel of Austinites as they discuss the role of nutrition and food access in the Black community, the will, programs, and funds required to make lasting health change, and what it means as a group, to tackle these complicated issues.
