Gather online with others who value smart public policy research. Our virtual event will feature a keynote speaker and a panel of Michigan public health experts.
Barbara L. McQuade, former U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan, will share her perspective on how police reforms that were part of a consent agreement between the City of Detroit and the U.S. Department of Justice addressed issues still confronting many other cities.
Professor McQuade has been recognized by the Detroit Free Press with the Neal Shine Award for Exemplary Regional Leadership, The Detroit News with the Michiganian of the Year Award, Crain's Detroit Business as a Newsmaker of the Year and one of Detroit's Most Influential Women, and the Detroit Branch NAACP and Arab American Civil Rights League with their Tribute to Justice Award.
A panel of Michigan public health experts will discuss issues and share solutions related to Michigan’s ability to respond to the coronavirus pandemic and lessons learned that should shape future public policy. The panel will be moderated by Tim Michling, Citizens Research Council health policy researcher.
