On October 14, 15 & 16, 2009 the New England Regional Minority Health Committee is proud to host the sixth biennial New England Regional Minority Health Conference at the Westin Hotel in Providence, Rhode Island. This conference, and the two year planning process, represents an historic collaboration that helps to influence the national agenda as it pertains to the elimination of racial and ethnic health disparities. Holding this biannual conference since 1999, in each of the six New England states, has established this regional initiative and this Conference as one of the pre-eminent gatherings on minority health issues in the United States.
The mission of the New England Regional Minority Health Conference is to create a dynamic forum to develop strategies to eliminate racial and ethnic health disparities. We expect over 600 health professionals, community health workers, nurses, physicians, legislators, academicians, employers, community based organizations and health care consumers from across the region and around the country to join us in exploring new ways to improve the health and well-being of New England’s minority communities.
