SSW students, consider attending this student-organized conference that is also curated for social work students.
Our annual Anti-Racism and Community Health (ARCH) Conference is on May 17th in which public health professionals discuss how we can combat white supremacy culture. Because many therapists and social workers are curated speakers for the event, we think it would be a great opportunity to share with your MSW and undergraduate students. If possible, could you please share this blurb and/or flyer?
“The RSO Students of Color for Public Health (SCPH) is excited to announce that our 2025 Anti-Racism and Community Health (ARCH) Conference will be on Saturday May 17th from 10PM-4PM in the Hans Rosling Center. We know our current healthcare system is not built to provide equitable healthcare services for all. With this in mind, our goal is to facilitate a collaborative community health conference to identify and prioritize needs, barriers, and solutions in confronting how racism and white supremacy have caused detrimental health outcomes in our communities.
The conference features a range of public health professionals as speakers, workshop leaders, and panelists who will be speaking on our theme “Empowering Communities: the Power of Public Health Communication.” The theme focuses on collaborating directly with communities to ensure public health initiatives are equitable, culturally responsive, and tackle the urgent issue of disinformation in today’s political climate. Our speakers will address a range of topics, including gender-based violence, empowering the mental health of Black populations, and protecting immigration rights, among others.
Lunch and dessert will be provided, and we’re so excited to see you at the conference. To RSVP and learn more about the theme, speakers, and other questions you might have, please visit scphuw.org/arch-conference]scphuw.org/arch-conference.”
