This will continue to be an ongoing issue especially with COVID and the lack of resources and vaccinations available to the community. Great work Andrea.
This was amazing! You did a great job showcasing many of the factors that contribute to environmental injustice while mentioning some of the possible interventions for social workers. Your hard work has translated to a concise and powerful presentation!
Great Job, Andrea. Your poster was comprehensive, clear, and informative. I loved the graphics. Your examples of environmental injustice in Flint, MI and Newark, NJ were particularly interesting. Adding the impact of COVID-19 to the environmental injustice of low-income communities made your discussion even more poignant and relevant. Great connection to the Grand Challenges of Social Work and Society. Congratulations and well done.
Andrea, this is GREAT work! Thank you for bringing to our attention the impact of environmental injustice and the importance of justice. There are inextricable connections between COVID-19, economics, policy, and the environment – which impact public health. Thank you.
a very important topic to speak on and you did a really good job on that. I think it is very important to understand who(race) is affected in this. disproportionately African American people are affected. which then explains the obesity in these people. unhealthy optioned are poured into their neighborhoods they have no other choice but to buy these types of food. and with the income that they have, it is all they can afford.
Great job explaining the automatic challenges those in low-income communities have to face! I especially applaud you connecting this situation to Covid-19 making your point very relevant and powerful.
Andrea, great presentation! The relationship between race, class and health are such important topics that are often either misunderstood and overlooked. For this reason, sadly, poor health is often exacerbated by healthcare workers & policy makers. Additionally, I found your point that exposure to poor air quality makes a person 8 times more likely to die from COVID-19 very insightful. As COVID-19 policies are being implemented, insight of this nature is required for equitable and just solutions.
Important topic for social workers especially for those who work with populations in substandard housing, challenged environmental areas.
