Unnatural Causes

...is inequality making us sick?

In May and June the Communities of Color Coalition (C3) will be hosting a two-hour community gathering around health care disparities. The evening will begin with a light supper, followed by a screening of a 30-minute segment from "Unnatural Causes", a PBS documentary on socioeconomic and racial disparities in health. This will be followed by a facilitated discussion on putting equity into action. Action ideas that come out of these discussions will be compiled and presented in a report to health care organizations in Snohomish County.
