In this session, we will define TWH and illustrate its...

09/12/2023: Community-Engaged Research: Increasing Occupational Health Equity Among Historically Marginalized Populations

About the webinar:

Community-engaged interventions that address structural/social dimensions of health and occupational health equity are lacking among low socioeconomic status and migrant workers, especially waterfront workers like fishermen and seafood processors.
