When you walk into your healthcare provider’s office, do you feel safe? Do you know what is happening inside the organization to ensure safe, high-quality environments for all people, and especially people of color? The current lack of transparency between community, healthcare consumers, and care providers is a major hurdle as we work together to address racism and health disparities. The good news is that innovative design can help us build accountability and transparency into our relationship with healthcare and ensure better outcomes for all. Delaine is dedicated to addressing and redesigning inequitable systems that impact health. A graduate of both The Ohio State University's and University of Minnesota's public health programs, she is most skilled at developing strategies that move health care anti-racism from conversation to action. Delaine currently serves as a Facilitator and Coach at Turnlane, where she empowers leaders and teams to incorporate anti-racism into their practice and organizations. Additionally, Delaine was recently awarded the 2022 Women's Health Equity Fellowship at Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation, where she will design interventions to prevent and/or treat cardiovascular disease among vulnerable mothers. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
