Organizers ask that people who can register online do so, so they know how many to expect.

The five speakers include the dean of Tulane’s School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine and a Baton Rouge cardiologist. Speakers also include a California nurse who will conduct a workshop titled “The ‘Strong Black Woman Syndrome’ and Black Women’s Health.”
