PBS39 presents Community Conversation, a series of forums that address today's issues impacting communities in the Greater Lehigh Valley and beyond. 

Join us for our next Community Conversation at 7 p.m. on Thursday, April 15. Correspondent Genesis Ortega will host this discussion focused on Vaccines and Communities of Color. 

COVID-19 has affected communities of color at disproportionate rates. We will examine why this is happening and what's being done to address disparities in health care access. Watch live on PBS39, online or on our PBS39 and 91.3 WLVR Facebook pages. 

Guests will include:

David Saunders, Director of the Pennsylvania Office of Health Equity

Debra Fraser-Howze, Founder of Choose Healthy Life

State Sen. Art Haywood, Member of Gov. Wolf's COVID-19 Task Force

Victoria Montero, Executive Director of the Hispanic Center of the Lehigh Valley

Reverend Benjamin Hailey, Union Baptist Church of Allentown

Jessica Lee Ortiz, Founder of Ortiz Ark Foundation

Sam Chen, Talk Show Host, COVID-19 patient
