Yesterday, our very own Claudia Hardy gave an update on the O'Neal Cancer Center's efforts to overcome barriers to health equity at the State of Black Health national conference. #SBH2021 was hosted by @blackbodyhealth, who is a long-time #ONealOutreach partner. @cityofbhamal
Tobacco use is a major contributor to the three leading causes of death among African Americans—heart disease, cancer, and stroke. It is important to keep our people educated #SBH2021 pre-conference
“In 2020, a lot of wounds were exposed,” Birmingham, Alabama, Mayor Randall Woodfin tells @AliVelshi. “We really need to talk about how do we move forward, and so I think there’s a long way to go, but I like the direction it's going.”
Investing in children’s mental health improves the lives of children and families.
In its final hours, the Trump Administration announced a policy that could dramatically reduce access to essential medications in Medicare for people with mental illness. NAMI strongly opposes this change and urges the next administration to revisit and stop this policy.
As the O'Neal Cancer Center's Office of Community Outreach & Engagement celebrates its 25th anniversary this year, #ONealOutreach is looking back at the founding, growth and evolution of its seminal asset, the Community Health Advisor Program: go.uab.edu/oneal-cha-model

We agree. Expanding Medicaid means more than 340,000 Alabamians will have access to health insurance and medical treatment for depression. It's time to #expandMedicaid and #CoverAlabama #alpolitics
People with depression and other illnesses need medical treatment and should not be viewed as less worthy of care.
