In addition to the first annual NHC Equity and Opportunity Awards, National Health Corps hosted a symposium last week entitled "Confronting Structural Oppression in Public Health." Held at the Blue Ball Barn in Wilmington, Delaware, the symposium brought together NHC host site organizations and other institutions in Delaware for a one-day workshop to exchange ideas and experiences about tackling structural barriers to health and wellbeing in the communities they serve. Participants were given the chance to learn more about one another’s initiatives and brainstorm together about common issues that arise in their work to confront structural oppression. Some photos from throughout the day 👇

Earlier this week, National Health Corps held their first annual NHC Equity and Opportunity Awards at the beautiful Blue Ball Barn in Wilmington, Delaware. The event served as a formal launch of the wider NHC Equity and Opportunity Initiative (more to come on this soon!), as well as a recognition and celebration of local community grassroots organizations in New Castle County, Delaware, that are actively working to confront structural barriers to health and wellbeing. Thank you to Delaware Senator Chris Coons and New Castle County Executive Matthew Meyer for joining in on the great night! Some pictures can be found below.
