Join us for a Network Commons webinar exploring how community economic development organizations can partner with healthcare institutions to create career pathways in low-income and BIPOC communities. The webinar will bring together inspiring leaders whose work is showcased in the Community Economic Development & Healthcare Playbook, co-authored by the National Alliance of Community Economic Development Associations (NACEDA) and Build Healthy Places Network (BHPN).

Learn from local leaders about cross-sector partnerships to create training opportunities, offer career pathways, and leverage assets from health institutions. Be part of the dialogue as speakers discuss strategies for cross-sector partnerships and the unique assets and resources they bring to the table to address the racial wealth gap and health inequities in their communities.
