The COVID conversation series was initiated during the pandemic with the theme that global health is local health so as a means to reach out to the local community but with a global and health equity.
From Dillard University
It has been extremely beneficial to the New Orleans community specifically in several underserved communities to have Ochsner Health as a partner in 2020. Our collaboration in implementing the “Ochsner Global Health is Local Health-Covid Conversations Series” has been a very effective means of connecting and empowering our vulnerable communities. I am again asking for your support this calendar fiscal year to partner with Dillard University Community Relations in addressing the underlining health challenges and provide health educational resources to minority communities.
