Health Equity & Social Justice Conference 2020 - Call for Abstracts

HESJ 2020 will take place virtually on Friday, November 6th. 


HESJ 2020 will focus on the Chicago public health/health care community’s response to current events, primarily the pandemic and racial justice. The conference planning committee will give priority to abstracts for skill-building workshops and roundtable discussions from community partners and community-based organizations. Our intent is to use the conference to bring together community voices, share best practices, and provide a forum for organizations in the Chicagoland area to engage in lively, solution-oriented discussions at a time when many of us are separated by remote work. Please join us!

We are now accepting submissions for:​

  1. Skill-Building Workshops (90 minutes)

  2. Roundtable Discussions (90 minutes)

  3. Oral Presentations (20 minutes)

  4. Poster Presentations (5 minute pre-recorded presentations)

Find submission requirements and instructions here. We look forward to reviewing your abstracts!
