Heat Related Impact of Climate Change Among Incarcerated Individuals in the US - University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School

The impacts of climate change are not distributed equally, and vulnerable populations are most at risk. The vulnerable population explored in this course is incarcerated people in the United States.  The health impact of climate change on incarcerated people has not received attention and scientific studies are lacking. This presentation will describe a course containing three presentations to be used in health care education settings. The curriculum is supported with optional activities and video supplements, a comprehensive resource library, and instructor manual to explore the topics further.
