| Summary: | "In February 2016, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a workshop in which speakers shared strategies for individuals, organizations, and communities to advance racial and health equity.

This publication serves as a factual summary of the presentations and discussions from the workshop"--Publisher's description. |
