About this Event
Personal health is essential for thriving communities. But how do we get there? And what role does policy play? Solano County’s General Plan will be updated in 2028, and community feedback will be required. Join the discussion at this fascinating and timely forum that brings together experts in medicine and city/regional planning. Learn practical, evidence-based strategies that can prevent and reverse chronic disease, and how communities can engage with policy-making to promote wellness. Bring your questions for a Q&A at the end!
Speakers include:
- Dr. Sarah Jones, primary care physician and Lifestyle Medicine specialist with Kaiser Permanente
- Dr. Catherine Brinkley, Associate Professor in Human Ecology, Community and Regional Development at UC Davis.
NOTE: This will be a HYBRID ZOOM meeting. Locally-sourced refreshments will be provided for those who attend in person.
Thank you to Kaiser Permanente for sponsoring this event!
