Last year, we were fortunate to host a renowned health equities champion, Dr. Camara Jones. We hope as the nation continues to confront and heal its ongoing struggle with racism; we can help provide the tools to address it. The 2020 Primary Care Summit provided a forum that increased the recognition of racism in the primary care settings in the state of Utah, and the education of future health professionals in this arena.
Join us this year for a one-day event on October 29, 2021, to discuss primary care solutions to Utah’s priority health concerns. We are excited to bring a broad set of stakeholders to this conversation, including health systems, policymakers, higher education, public health, and community-based organizations dedicated to enhancing primary care in Utah.
