thWelcome to the 30 Annual Minority Health Conference!On behalf of the Minority Health Conference Planning committee, the Minority Student Caucus, and the UNC GillingsSchool of Global Public Health, we would like to welcome you to our 30th Annual Minority Health Conference. Thisyear’s conference marks a significant milestone as it represents 30 years of continued determination, success, andcommitment of the Carolina community to the important issues of minority health and health disparities. The theme ofthis year’s conference, “Our World, Our Community: Building Bridges for Health Equality,” was chosen in part to alignwith the name change of the UNC School of Public Health to the UNC Gillings School of Global Public health. Wewanted to provide a forum where we can challenge one another to think about global health from an inclusiveperspective that includes the health interests of people domestically AND internationally and to highlight and build onthe similarities that exist with respect to minority health and health disparities regardless of where we choose to doour work. Working towards health equality necessitates a focus that is not bounded by borders, a focus that does nothalt because of oceans separating people, a focus that includes the health of all people.We are so grateful that you chose to participate in our conference this year and hope that you leave with increasedknowledge from our keynote lecture, breakout and poster sessions, expanded networks as we socialize and talk withone another, and increased ability to make change happen from learning effective and efficient ways to advocate forthe health issues you care most about through participation in the Advocacy Workshop with CARE, USA.We would like to extend a welcome to our five partner conferences that will be sharing the same keynote lecture andorganizing events in their local area. Our partner conferences this year are with the following groups: the MinorityStudents for the Advancement of Public Health (MSAPH) at the University of Illinois, Chicago, the Public Health Alliancefor Minorities (PHAM) at Boston University School of Public Health, the Society of Young Black Public HealthProfessionals at Tulane University School of Public Health, the Students of Color for Public Health (SCPH) at theUniversity of California, Los Angeles, and the Multicultural Student Organization at the University of California,Berkeley.We were privileged to work with an enthusiastic, thorough, and determined planning committee this year, and we aretruly thankful for the time and effort they have put into making this conference happen.

Agenda (continued)10:30 amBreak/ Posters and Exhibitors Session10:45 amMORNING CONCURRENT SESSIONS(A1) Social Policies and HealthWhile not generally considered to be health policy, laws and regulations concerning immigration, housing, taxes, andeducation have the ability to create health disparities as well as to ameliorate or exacerbate existing ones. Countries varyon the kinds of social policies that they implement. This session will compare and contrast social policies of the U.S. withthose of other countries to help us better understand the effects of various policies on minority health and healthoutcomes in general.Arjumand Siddiqi, ScDAssistant Professor, Department of Health Behavior and Health EducationUNC Gillings School of Global Public HealthChapel Hill, NCModerator:Rebecca CashmanHealth Behavior and Health EducationUNC Gillings School of Global Public Health(A2) Ethical Issues in ResearchWhen conducting research with marginalized or underserved populations, the investigator is often confronted with manyethical considerations. This is especially true in international settings where the questions arise from large differences inculture and resources within a multinational research team and between the researchers and the study participants. Thissession will explore complex ethical and cultural issues in research conduct. It will cover topics such as: how can weconduct research in a way that recognizes and respects multiple cultures, racial/ethnic make-up, and socioeconomicpositions of the participants; and how can we ensure that participants receive a benefit and do not become furthermarginalized by the research.Trude Bennett, DrPHFrieda Behets, PhD, MPHAssociate Professor, Department of Maternal and Child HealthUNC Gillings School of Global Public HealthChapel Hill, NCAssociate Professor, Department of EpidemiologyUNC Gillings School of Global Public HealthAssociated Professor, Department of MedicineUNC School of MedicineChapel Hill, NCStuart Rennie, PhDResearch Assistant Professor, Department of Dental EcologyUNC Gillings School of Global Public HealthChapel Hill, NCLecturer, Department of Philosophy, University of Cape TownModerator:Tiana GarrettEpidemiologyUNC Gillings School of Global Public Health8UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health - 30th Annual Minority Health Conference
Agenda (continued)(A3) Urban and Rural Health ProgramsIn communities throughout the world, there are various considerations and unique challenges in providing care to ruraland urban populations. When designing health programs, it is imperative to consider the structural, economic, andcultural contexts of these populations. Ignoring these factors can lead to extremely disparate health outcomes. Thissession will focus on unique characteristics of these two socio-cultural contexts. It will explore the challenges facing publichealth professionals serving in rural areas and discuss what must be considered when conducting research and developingand implementing interventions in these settings.Bankole Olatosi, PhD, MS, MPHMalika Roman Isler, MPHAssistant Professor, Health Care ManagementMount Olive CollegeMount Olive College, NCAssistant Director with the Community Engagement Corewith the NC TraCS InstituteDoctoral Candidate, Department of Health Behavior and Health EducationUNC Gillings School of Global Public HealthBahby Banks, MPHDoctoral Candidate, Department of Health Behaviorand Health EducationUNC Gillings School of Global Public HealthModerator:Laurie AblerHealth Behavior and Health EducationUNC Gillings School of Global Public Health(A4) The HPV Vaccine: Considering ContextThe creation of a vaccine to protect against Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), the virus that causes cervical cancer, was amedical breakthrough. However, controversy quickly ensued, as researchers, policy makers and healthcare professionalstried to balance the pros and cons of requiring that girls receive the vaccination. While parents in the United States arguedover immunizing preadolescent girls against a sexually transmitted disease, public health workers in developing countrieswith much higher rates of cervical cancer had very different issues to consider. This session will examine the importance ofconsidering context, including cultural beliefs, disease burden and cost, in determining which public health innovationsshould be promoted.Jennifer S.

Agenda (continued)(A5) Cultural Issues Surrounding Mental HealthBoth within the United States and internationally, people of different ethnic, racial, and religious backgrounds view mentalhealth in different ways. In the Western world, mental disorders are typically diagnosed and treated as a medical diseasewith biological causes, whereas other cultures may blame mental illness on spiritual or behavioral factors within theindividual. This session will explore such differences in perceptions of mental illness across cultures, with a focus on theinfluence that cultural beliefs have on social stigmatization and treatment of mental illness.Christopher L.

Partnerships between research organizations and communities across the globe are essential for findingsolutions to our most pressing health matters. At their best, these partnerships can help create sustainable capacity forconducting effective health research in resource-constrained regions of the world. This session will highlight successfulmodels of international research partnerships, such as UNC's response to the HIV crisis in Malawi.Irving Hoffman, PA, MPHAssociate Professor, Department of Medicine, Division of Infectious DiseasesSchool of Medicine, UNC at Chapel HillChapel Hill, NCModerator:Megan ChristopherHealth Behavior and Health EducationUNC Gillings School of Global Public Health10UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health - 30th Annual Minority Health Conference
Agenda (continued)(B2) Migrant Farmworker HealthIt is estimated that there are two to three million farmworkers in the United States, with approximately 150,000farmworkers and their families in North Carolina during each growing season. The majority of these individuals work andlive in unsafe conditions without the protections afforded to the documented and non-agriculture workforces, puttingthem at risk for pesticide exposure, heat stroke, unsanitary and overcrowded conditions, and lack of access to healthcare. This session will explore the intersections among ethnicity, immigration status, labor policy, and economics thataffect the health of farmworkers and migrant farmworkers in North Carolina and beyond.Melanie Stratton LopezRaul GranadosInto the Field Internship Program CoordinatorStudent Action with FarmworkersDurham, NCMigrant Youth DirectorStudent Action with FarmworkersDurham, NCMary Johnson RockersNorth Carolina Farmworker Health ProgramRaleigh, NCModerator:Joy MessingerHealth Behavior and Health EducationUNC Gillings School of Global Public Health(B3) LGBTQ HealthThe U.S. Department of Health and Human Service’s Healthy People 2010 report has as one of its central goals toeliminate health disparities, including those that exist between the LGBTQ and general populations. Healthdisparities related to sexual orientation include mental health, suicide attempts, some physical health conditions (e.g.,HIV/AIDS, anal cancer in gay/bisexual men), and some risk behaviors (e.g., tobacco use). This session will focus onminority stress as a theoretical model to explaining health disparities. Minority stress theory suggests thathomophobia and heterosexism are powerful social stressors that may lead to adverse health outcomes. In thissession participants will explore the implications of minority stress on diverse LGBT populations, the intersection ofsexual orientation and race/ethnic minority identity, and implication for public policy and public health intervention.Ilan H.

Agenda (continued)(B4) Environment, Disasters, and Health DisparitiesAlthough genetic inheritance is an important cause of individual variation in health and disease, public health isfundamentally conditioned by aspects of the environment – healthy food, clean air and water, adequate shelter, safeworkplaces, educational opportunities, and freedom from violence – that prevent disease and promote health. Lack ofthese conditions is at the root of racial and socioeconomic disparities in health, disease, and mortality. The environmentalconditions that promote public health also affect a population’s susceptibility to disasters includin
