August 10, 2020 11:00 am-12:30 pm (EST)
Kalimah Johnson, Executive Director of the SASHA Center
Join us for conversations about how the SASHA center, a Detroit based sexual assault service, prevention and education agency continues to navigate through a global pandemic.
The continuing fight for social justice and visibility continues to be a challenge as health care disparities are dramatically, and tragically, highlighted through the onset of COVID-19.
