ABOUT THIS WEBINAR
This virtual event, sponsored by the National Association of Chronic Disease Directors, is in support of Active People, Healthy NationSM and includes a keynote presentation by Charles T. Brown, MPA, CPD, LCI and a panel discussion featuring Black thought leaders in community and transportation planning to explore limits placed on Black mobility in the U.S.
National priorities for increasing physical activity to improve health do not address the needs and specific barriers experienced by Black and Indigenous People of Color. This moderated panel presentation will explore these barriers and offer strategies for ensuring racial equity and justice in efforts to increase physical activity. (And be sure to join the conversation on social media using #ArrestedMobility.)
