Plenary: Addressing COVID 10 Inequities - Strategies to Rebuild our Nation for an Inclusive Future

Overview
Action is needed to help those most affected by COVID-19 to prepare for subsequent waves and to address the long standing issue of inequities. What advances are needed in policy, advocacy, and education to address these issues? How do we engage and educate the community and what is their role in this process? How can communities work with the city and government for an interagency collaboration?
