Discussion on COVID-19 in New Jersey: Epicenter Perspectives

This week our guests include members of a community-research collaborative board of which I am a member for the past 10 years. We will discuss COVID-19 with a focus on community organizing in Newark and how research can be used to help underserved communities. Special guests from Newark will discuss Identity and Vulnerabilities in an epicenter of COVID-19: 

• Warren Thompson, Rutgers University, Social Work Department
• Lisa Gaskins, Integrity House
• William Hempstead, Essex County College
• Deacon Eric Anderson
• Darris Hawkins, North Jersey Community Research Initiative (NJCRI)
• Lili Windsor, Newark Community Collaborative Board

This follows on conversations the Faculty Allies for Diversity have been having for the past two months on social consequences of the pandemic. Please join us!

We look forward to having a robust discussion.
