The DEI Virtual Conference, “Beyond the Comfort Zone: Understanding and Eradicating Injustice, Racism and Inequality in the Field of Developmental Disabilities,” will be held May 18, 2022. Exploring the intersection of disability and race, the DEI Virtual Conference seeks to increase fluency and understanding of the history, challenges and opportunities impacting people with I/DD and the staff who work with them. 

We are thrilled to be speaking at the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Virtual Conference presented by AHRC Nassau and The Arc of the United States!

How AHRC Nassau and Its Affiliates Use Data to Promote DEI and SDOH Outcomes 

4:10 p.m. – 5:10 p.m. ET

AHRC Nassau has always believed that all people must be treated with dignity and respect with a commitment to diversity and cultural sensitivity that is essential.  Using data from long-time partner, MediSked, AHRC Nassau will share their findings over a ten-year period, examining changes in race, ethnicity, and service/program delivery, down to the zip code level. The presenters will share where equity measures are improving and areas that should be targeted for diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. 

Presenters:

  • Winston Thompson, Assistant Director – IT, AHRC Nassau
  • Doug Golub, President, MediSked
