Public Health for People with Disabilities and Public Health and Addressing Climate Change
Health and Health Care Forum with host Roberta Hall

The third program from the Oregon Public Health Conference for 2014 features keynoter Gloria Krahn, (pictured above), who presents the case that people with disabilities represent a health disparity population; she reviews the history of progress in how disabled people have been addressed and points toward additional efforts that are being made.
And later we hear about the role of public health in addressing climate change, in a discussion with Zach Baker, (pictured below) whose background is in public health and environmental concerns, and who also has become involved in public policy by serving on a city council and as an aide to a state legislator.
