  • City of Chicago DPH Health Equity and Data Sharing Webinar

    The City of Chicago Department of Public Health is doing a webinar around health equity and data sharing on October 13, 2022 at 2:30 PM CT/3:30 PM ET. Read on for more details.

    Understanding the ties between ZIP Code and health is critical to the work of public health officials. Yet, it can be challenging, if not impossible, to identify specific needs and measure progress because data is too siloed or difficult to share.

    That’s why the Chicago Department of Public Health (CDPH) has focused on making data accessible, understandable and sharable via the Chicago Health Atlas. That’s also why we’re hosting a webinar to share their story which provides a roadmap of what’s possible with better access to better data to fuel collaboration.

    Join us on October 13 at 2:30 pm CT to learn how investing in this data strategy enabled CDPH, its partners, and community leaders to quickly and deliberately create data insights and make data-driven decisions to advance health equity – and how it will continue to drive their strategy and impact into 2023 and beyond.

    Register now to attend the webinar featuring Megan Cunningham, Managing Deputy Commissioner at CDPH and Nik Prachand, Director of Epidemiology at CDPH.
