Upcoming Event! Cape & Islands Coffee with the Compact: Taking Bold Action Towards Health Equity

Please join the Health Equity Compact on November 29th, 2023, from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM ET via Zoom for a Cape & Islands Coffee with the Compact: Taking Bold Action Towards Health Equity!

Register here!

Cape & Islands leaders are invited to an introduction of the Health Equity Compact, featuring remarks from Damian K.L. Archer, MD, Compact member and incoming CEO of Outer Cape Health Services.

The Health Equity Compact brings together over 80 leaders of color across a diverse set of
Massachusetts organizations – including hospitals, health centers, payers, academic institutions, labor,
philanthropy, life sciences, and public health – to advance health equity in Massachusetts.

During this virtual event, we will share an overview of the Compact’s omnibus bill, An Act to Advance
Health Equity. This bill works to achieve transformational health reform through policy provisions such as
diversifying the healthcare workforce, standardizing health equity data metrics, prioritizing equity in
state government and so much more.

There will be time to ask questions and provide feedback. We look forward to hearing from you and discussing opportunities for future collaboration to advance health equity.
