We are honored to welcome Yvonka M. Hall, Executive Director of the Northeast Ohio Black Health Coalition, as our speaker. Yvonka will detail types of racism in health care — overt and covert — and offer solutions. She will also tell us how Ohio’s H.B. 292 can help.

Yvonka M. Hall is a nationally-recognized expert on health disparities and serves as an adviser to numerous organizations. The 1974 murder of her mother dramatically changed her life; her childhood promise to use her life to help others has led to the creation of cutting-edge programs and has impacted thousands of people’s lives. She is a proud mother and grandmother who is deeply impassioned and involved in social justice activities. She is a former candidate for Ohio State Representative. Whether it’s speaking against environmental issues, systemic racism, infant mortality, domestic violence, health disparities, mental illness, juvenile justice, employment, education, or hosting community forums, she uses her voice to make a difference in the lives of others.
