Gathering Grounds Meeting for Health Workers & Students – How to Engage in the 2020 Election
Voting matters for health –– the act itself, your safety and accessibility in doing it, and its impacts on your community. Amidst unprecedented intersecting crises that all have to do with community health –– from COVID-19 to uprisings against anti-Black violence to the climate crisis –– so much is at stake as voters nationwide begin to cast ballots as early as this week.
Health workers and students have a unique role to play in ensuring people can vote safely vote, sharing critical voting information with our networks, and drawing the connections between health and the many pressing issues of this moment. This webinar-style meeting will provide information to equip you to play all of these important roles (and will cover in-person and remote roles to play).

About Our Practice
The Seven Sacred Directions
Seven Directions was born from a desire to create greater connectivity across the many tribes, communities and organizations that have the health and wellness of American Indian and Alaska Native people at the heart of what they do. We are guided by the “seven directions” of practice: Integration & Holistic Wellness, Culture & Identity, Families & Communities, Respect for Sovereignty, Service, Indigenous Knowledge, and Tribal Governance.
The Seven Sacred Directions serve as an indigenous framework for presenting the strategic directions for the public health agenda.
