When people struggle to afford healthy food, pay their bills and take care of other basic essentials, their health can suffer. Kaiser Permanente’s innovative approach to value-based health care includes addressing the social and community factors that affect people’s health and ability to access care. As the person who oversees her organization’s “housing for health” strategies and Food is Medicine Center of Excellence, our keynote speaker shares how one of the nation’s largest not-for-profit health plans is improving diabetes care with programs to reduce housing and food insecurity among patients and to transform the way we prevent and treat diet-related diseases with nutrition-based interventions.

Renowned spoken word artist Kondwani Fidel will perform an original, commissioned piece, proudly sponsored by the ADCES Foundation.
