Why did the scarecrow get promoted? Because he was out standing in his field. (Oof, that was corny.)

Speaking of the cream of the crop …

You won’t want to miss the 18th Annual Texas Conference on Health Disparities on June 8 and 9. You’ll hear from a whole host of experts who are also outstanding in their fields. Not only that! You can also actively participate in several smaller, more intimate roundtable discussions on mental health, artificial intelligence, access to health care and technology, housing, transportation, structural racism and more.

This year’s theme is “Engaging the Whole Person to Address Health Disparities,” and the keynote speaker is none other than Dr. Benjamin Kligler, executive director of the Office of Patient Centered Care and Cultural Transformation at the Veterans Health Administration. Dr. Kligler will speak about “Whole Health as an Approach to Health Equity: Time for Cultural Transformation.”

Don’t miss your chance to engage in open, meaningful discussions on how to enhance health equity! Register by Friday, June 2 at tchd2023.dryfta.com/attendee-registration-tickets.
