Health and Quality of Life: Cultivating Health Literate Communities

In recent years several of the National Urban League affiliate CEOs have expressed an interest in pursuing innovation approaches to address the health and wellness needs of their communities. Of the approaches mentioned, improving health literacy, health equity and access to advanced health care solutions, including clinical trial research participation are but some of the topics in which Urban League CEOs have expressed interest. This CEO Roundtable will bring together Pfizer executive leadership, NUL and UL affiliate CEOs to discuss:

• Cultivating strategic relationships, lead community efforts and best support Pfizer’s goal of building trusting relationships within target markets,
• Developing strategies for increasing community awareness of clinical trial participation as a healthcare solution, and

Establishing an ongoing Urban League Health Literacy and Equity working group (UL affiliate CEO and executive staff) that extends beyond the WMY Conference.
