Kar-Hai Chu of Pitt's Center for Research on Media, Technology, and Health will discuss his use of innovative techniques such as social network analysis (SNA) in exploratory and surveillance studies and interventions including recent work on the marketing and use of electronic cigarettes. 

The Center for Health Equity (CHE) joins in Pitt PARK(ing) Day with an unique installation addressing the concept of health equity and ideal of a smoke-free campus. Through creative energy and experimentation, participants take an otherwise dead, urban parking space and turn it into a pop-up "installation" for a day, raising awareness about the importance of a livable city and helping people to re-think how our streets can be utilized. 

Center for Health Equity will be screening the film "We Wear the Mask" produced by Tammy Thompson from the Pittsburgh Chapter of Circles. Following the film will be presentations from Ms. Thompson on poverty and Lee Davis from the Violence Prevention Project discussing violence as a social determinant of health.

Come enjoy singing, drumming, dancing, arts, crafts, museum & native foods.
