Wednesday, September 23, 2020 – Please Join Us For Hunger and Housing Lessons from COVID-19

COVID-19 has exacerbated the effects of the social determinants of health especially around housing and hunger. Food insecurity and the ability to afford safe and stable housing leads to physical and mental health consequences that are disproportionally felt by marginalized populations. Megan Sandel, MD, MPH, Associate Director of the GROW clinic at Boston Medical Center, a Principal Investigator with Children’s Health Watch and an Associate Professor of Pediatrics at the Boston University Schools of Medicine and Public Health will present and the program will be moderated by Kathryn Brodowski, MD, MPH, Chair.
