On November 4th, 2009 the ABFAS brown bag community lunch series featured a roundtable discussion entitled, Healthcare Reform and Its Impact on the African American Community. 

The discussion, facilitated by Dr. Charlene Y. Douglas, was designed to provide information from an expert in the field, while talking candidly among coworkers about the healthcare system in a non-politicized and non-partisan setting.  Additionally, the event furthered the organization's commitment to highlighting our many accomplished fellow colleagues in their respective areas of expertise from within our campus community.
