In partnership with the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Equity and the Urban Health Institute, Centro Sol presents the 5th annual Latinx Health Conference. Students, faculty, health care practitioners, political leaders, researchers, and community members from across Baltimore invited to learn about inequities in childhood obesity that disproportionately affect Latinx and African American children in Baltimore. This conference will present lessons learned from a patient-centered research and an action plan proposing solutions to weight management and obesity. We will be joined by an amazing panel of health equity leaders and latinx health experts, including key note speaker, Eliana Perrin, Chief of Pediatrics at Duke University! Register for this free, virtual event today!
Conference background:
Through research done by Centro SOL, it is known that Latino children have among the highest rates of early childhood obesity of any racial or ethnic group in the U.S. To address the gap between the recommended treatment for childhood obesity and patient/family-centered intensive childhood weight management, Centro SOL established a network based on a Patient Centered Outcome Research method (PCOR). The network has analyzed barriers, assets, components and actors needed for effective/community-centered weight management interventions.
