Daily Dad Joke May 24

What do you call a meeting for the Knights of the Round Table? A sir conference.

Hey, speaking of conferences!

Let’s not go around in circles here. If you’re a fan of the Daily Dad Joke, you knight have noticed by now that this is a ploy — nay, a service — to share information about the 18th Annual Texas Conference on Health Disparities coming up on June 8 and 9 about “Engaging the Whole Person to Address Health Disparities.”

At this year’s event, you yourself can feel like nobility by sitting at your own roundtable — in this instance, discussing mental health, artificial intelligence, access to health care and technology, housing, transportation, structural racism and more with other curious individuals engaged in combating health disparities!

You’ll also hear from a whole host of experts, including our keynote, 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.
