a Healthcare Ready | CSG East feature
The Council of State Governments Eastern Regional Conference, Council on Communities of Color, in conjunction with Healthcare Ready, presents a new installment in an ongoing series of micro-summits called "CSG East on COVID-19" or #CSGCOVID19. Our latest focus will be "Advancing Practical Protections through Policy in the Age of COVID-19."
These micro-summits offer insights, analysis and solutions on numerous challenges communities and governments face as the pandemic ensues. This next micro-summit will take place via Zoom on Friday, May 29th, 10am - 11am ET.
These micro-summits are being produced in partnership with the B|E Note. It is a unique convening of state and local policy makers, experts and thinkers concerned about the massive equity gaps exposed and worsened by the global coronavirus pandemic.
Please REGISTER to receive Zoom details.
Join to watch and hear expert panelists examine how communities can safeguard public health amid the steady reopening of the economy though policy.
Panelists:
State Senator Kevin Parker | New York
Dara Lieberman, Director of Government Relations for Trust for America’s Health
Dr. Matthew Minson, Senior Advisor for Health Affairs at the Texas A&M University Health Science Center (Former State, Local, and Federal Health Official)
Brooks Nelson, Senior Director at US Chamber of Commerce Foundation
David Newville, Prosperity Now’s Vice President of Policy and Research
Panelists will discuss the guidelines, policies, and regulations we should be leaning on as states reopen. The discussion will identify ways to make these policies practical as employees return to their workplaces with an emphasis on protecting the public health of our community members. Speakers will also touch on what businesses are doing to address these considerations as they work to re-open. Building from lessons learned from the experiences of the essential workers, our panelists will unpack how cities and states should impose physical distancing while re-opening. Some other topics of discussion will include the role of state licensing and inspection in enforcing local and recommendations for reopening.
