What people are saying.
“I can’t get over how absolutely phenomenal Tonja’s presentation was. I figured it was going to be yet another webinar amongst the other hundred I have watched but this one was different, just so vivid, thought provoking, jam packed with information and in a class of its own. I want to be able to hear it again, take notes, and absorb more of it for my own practice and so I can learn more about these topics. I am just so blown away. I want more!!!”

“Tonja, thank you so much for a wonderful, compelling, thought-provoking and engaging call to action presentation! You have given me and my department lots to think about as we continue our journey in addressing racism in pediatrics.”

“(Name removed) stated that she had seen a lot of talks on this topic but that yours was the best, most data-driven, and offered the most action steps/practical approaches to improving the situation than any similar talk she had seen.“

“That was about the most thoughtfully constructed and kind presentation on racial impact on wellbeing and addressing inequity/injustice in health care.”

“I just have to say .... What a great presentation!!!! You have a great gift to present. Your passion and commitment came through loud and clear, even in the midst of all the data you presented. I just did the webinar for the disparity in the Hispanic culture. They presented a lot of data also but your presentation took it a step further. You just put it out there. If there is anything that I can do to help with the process I would be more than happy to work along side you. I just wanted to let you know I truly saw light with your presentation. Thank you for saying the piece about listening to the patient’s voice of what they need and not just assuming (I know I paraphrased).”
