Most organizations can recite statistics about disparities. Far fewer can point to equity-centered programs that patients and communities actually feel. In this program, Dr. Manley shows how to move from talking about inequity to designing for equity in a concrete way.
He walks audiences through real examples from his work at SCHEQ: plain-language lung cancer infographics, patient education portals, webinar series, and an annual Lung Cancer Interventions Summit that center Black, Hispanic/Latine, and low-income communities. Along the way, he surfaces the tough questions—who is at the table, who is resourced, and how community partners are treated—while also offering a clear, realistic path forward.
Attendees leave with a simple design framework, examples they can borrow and adapt, and a clearer sense of how DEI and health equity show up in decisions about content, funding, staffing, and community collaboration.
