CHEEA’s Interprofessional Health Equity Course is an interactive lecture and discussion series on topics in social medicine, health equity and advocacy. This year, the course will run from December 2023-June 2024.

This is a 7 part series and consists of one 2-hour session per month on Fridays, 3-5 PM, in-person on the CHA campus. Participants can expect 1-2 hours of preparatory and follow up material (e.g., readings, documentaries) monthly. Participants are expected to attend all lectures. Each session will consist of lectures and guided discussions. 

This course is grounded in the belief that healthcare professionals can play a powerful role in addressing systemic health inequities. It is also grounded in the idea that interprofessional learning can help healthcare professionals better explore and leverage their perspectives as clinician advocates.

This CHA based course is offered to trainees in any CHA post graduate training program, including pharmacy, psychology, dental, nurse practitioners, podiatry and residency programs in internal medicine, family medicine, and psychiatry. The course will be taught by experienced clinician- educators at CHA and beyond, and will be co-directed by Danny McCormick, MD, MPH (Department of Medicine) and Cassandra Fox, FNP-C (Zinberg Clinic).
