Episode description
Life expectancy for Black Americans is four years shorter than it was 20 years ago.
In this episode, Dr. P delves into this sobering statistic. She identifies youth suicide as well as maternal and infant mortality among the factors that contribute to the overall decline in Black Americans' lifespans.
Dr. P urges concerned listeners to attend the Healthy Churches 2030 Conference, which will feature expert presentations on these topics, including steps we can take individually and collectively in response.
Register for the Healthy Churches 2030 Conference at hc2030.org.
