Putting Women’s Health on the Ballot: Social and Environmental Factor on Women’s Health

How does the environment and your social status impact on your health and what kinds of policy can improve these factors?  On October 26th, 2022, we hosted a webinar, “Putting Women’s Health on the Ballot”.  11 experts joined me in 4 separate panels to discuss how policy impacts women’s health. Our panel of experts informed us on the impact of social and environmental factors on health which range from access to healthy food and transportation all the way to fair wages or even climate change or violence against women.  We also talked about how these factors can be affected by the policies enacted by our elected officials.
