Duke Health, the Durham County Department of Public Health, and the Partnership for a Healthy Durham Health & Housing Committee invite you to a Summit on Healthy Housing for All
As Durham builds its future, how do we ensure that all of our neighbors have housing that is safe, accessible, and allows them to live comfortably as they age? How do we strengthen communities so individuals, including those with disabilities or limited mobility, have affordable housing where they and their families can thrive? How do we connect those who need assistance in finding or modifying homes to be more accessible with those who have the skills and resources to make those improvements? Together we will co-create a solution that will allow every member of the Durham community to age in place, to have homes that are accessible and visitable, and to live with dignity in safe, affordable housing.
From health professionals and housing agencies to construction firms, government representatives, community health workers, home repair providers, and philanthropy, we invite everyone working to ensure Durham residents have safe and healthy homes to join us!
If you need assistance or accommodations to fully participate in this event, please contact Bria Miller, Partnership Coordinator, at briamiller@dconc.gov. A light breakfast and lunch will be provided. Please do not bring any plastic bottles. There are plenty of facilities to refill glasses or reusable water bottles.
