The American Public Health Association’s Center for Climate, Health and Equity and the Science and Community Action Network (SciCAN.org) invite you to participate in this virtual workshop to discuss how public health professionals can build equitable, trust-based partnerships with communities. Through these partnerships, you as public health professionals have a tremendous opportunity to support marginalized communities, incorporate their lived experiences and expertise into your work, and achieve more equitable health outcomes.

This workshop includes a panel discussion with health professional and environmental justice voices from different backgrounds who will:

• share stories of partnerships gone well (and some not so well), and
• share best practices and advice for building and maintaining relationships based on trust.

Following the panel, we will invite attendees to participate in breakout groups to build and practice the skills they’ve learned.
