Healthcare Inequities in Rheumatology Webinar Series
The CRA, as part of its commitment to Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, has launched a special project to discuss healthcare inequities in Rheumatology. This project is provided as a webinar series that has been developed based on feedback from CRA members regarding the gaps in knowledge on how to address healthcare inequities in rheumatology practice and specifically amongst specific populations. Each webinar will be led by an engaging expert in the field.
The goal of the project is to provide education around this topic to our Canadian rheumatology community.
