ZIP Code Matters: Documentary Screening And Panel Discussion

Did you know that your ZIP Code is the greatest predictor of how long you are expected to live? Not your blood pressure, not your cholesterol levels, not your genetics. Yes, your ZIP Code.

One’s ZIP Code has been shown to have a greater impact on health and well-being than one’s genetic code, affecting your access to education, transportation, and wealth. How is this possible? This documentary asked this question of the nation’s leading experts and got answers.

Join The Fair Housing Center for a special virtual screening of this new documentary, followed by a panel discussion to further explore how our life outcomes are shaped by where we live.
