Conscientious Clinician Program (CCP)- Supporting Marginalized Communities

Join us for the first workshop series in the Conscientious Clinician Program (CCP)- Supporting Marginalized Communities

Presenter: Dr. Judith Flores

Historically marginalized communities often experience a unique set of health needs, rooted at the intersection of complex individual, interpersonal, sociocultural, and political factors. This session engages participants in strategies for identifying and addressing those needs by centering the voices and experiences of members of these communities. By the end of the session, participants will feel empowered to take action and confront health injustice to achieve health equity.
