Read the Graphic Novel and Start a Conversation About Health Equity
Published with Permission from Center for Health Progress, Denver Colorado 
About Health Equity Graphic Novel Project | Waiting for Health Equity | Start a Conversation

Waiting for Health Equity is intended as a tool for launching new discussions and challenging our own perspectives and privilege around health equity. As such, we’ve developed a facilitation guide (PDF) for groups wishing to host a conversation. Additionally, throughout Waiting for Health Equity there are “LEARN MORE” icons, which indicate that a character has more to say about an issue than what could fit in these pages. Learn more about the impact transportation, working conditions, food access, and other factors have on a person’s ability to live a healthy life by reading their commentary and reading suggestions below.
Link to Graphic Novel  (44 pages) ​
​Please reference the following web pages to read the detailed answers that are included on the Center for Public Health Progress web site.
You can also print out the Facilitation Guide and answer the questions.
