Business Resource and Innovation Center at Parkway Central Library
The Regional Foundation Center is pleased to welcome Audrey Davis, Assistant Directory of Systems Integration in the Office of the Commissioner at Philadelphia’s Department of Behavioral Health and Intellectual disAbility Services (DBHIDS), for an interactive session designed to inform nonprofits about Philadelphia's health landscape and how this data is applicable to their work. During this session, attendants will be able to:
- Learn about current behavioral health needs in Philadelphia
- Review data related to the social determinants of health
- Understand opportunities to improve healthy equity, racial justice, and address trauma
This session is applicable to those interested in learning more about social determinants of health, as well as those looking to better understand the importance of data collecting and sharing.
To help reinforce the material presented, the session will include opportunities for participants to brainstorm and share their own experiences with data collection. Please come prepared to learn, share, and participate!
