EMPOWERMENT SESSIONS •
Our empowerment sessions are opportunities for us to come together in community for an informative conversation about different health topics from an anti-racism lens. These one-hour sessions occur over Zoom or in person, depending on location, and are hosted by Black pre-health and health professional students from our community. Whether you have questions, concerns, or just need reassurance.
