September 19, 2020
Please join PHIWM and Representative Mindy Domb to learn more about the Western Massachusetts COVID-19 Data Dashboard.

Please join PHIWM and Representative Mindy Domb to learn more about the Western Massachusetts COVID-19 Data Dashboard. The Dashboard is designed to present COVID-19 data in a way that is accessible to decision-makers and the public in our region. Access to up-to-date COVID-19 data is critical to inform communities, schools, businesses, legislators, governments, health departments and organizations to take action to meet the needs of the communities they serve while maintaining safety. Local data is particularly needed given the unique mix of rural, suburban and urban communities here. 

 

The webinar will be opened by our Executive Director Jessica Collins. Dr. Cristina Huebner-Torres, our Board Chair and Vice President of Population Health and Research at Caring Health Center will be the moderator. Dr. Kathleen Szegda, PHIWM’s Director of Community Research and Evaluation, will present the Dashboard. The presentation will be followed by panel discussion about how people are using COVID-19 data to inform decisons as well as challenges encountered. Panelists include: State Representative Mindy Domb from Amherst; Gail Gramarossa, MPH, from Collaborative for Educational Services and also representing the Ware region; and Meg Burch, MS, RN, school nurse leader and epidemiologist from Frontier School Regional District in Franklin County/Franklin Regional Council of Governments.  Learn more about the speakers.

We are all on the same journey

Wanda Givens is a member of the leadership team for the Women of Color Health Equity Collective (WOCHEC). WOCHEC offers training and consulting services to address issues of white supremacy, health inequity, and more. As part of her work at WOCHEC, Wanda facilitates a training about cultural humility. "What I love most about facilitating Cultural Humility is not what people learn about each other, but what they learn about themselves. The more we know about how we get to be who we are, the more we can understand and relate to someone else’s journey. There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing someone come to the realization that they are more like others in the room than they are different. Our paths may take different roads, but essentially, we are all on the same journey."
