2024 Community Conversations! 

Community involvement is essential to effective policymaking. Every year, Health Equity Solutions organizes Community Conversations to understand the health equity issues that matter most to Connecticut residents. During these discussions, participants share their perspectives on health equity and healthcare and express their interest in contributing to this work. The insights gathered from these sessions inform our annual policy agenda.

Want to get involved? Email Tonya Bradley at TBradley@hesct.org.
