S7, Ep 5- Health Equity and Black History Month: Breaking Down Barriers with Sarah Shaw

Black History Month is a time to celebrate the great achievements and commemorate important Black heroes and events throughout our history. It’s also a time to reflect and raise awareness of racial and ethnic disparities across health care sectors.

The Health Advocates are joined by Sarah Shaw, Senior Manager of BIPOC Community Outreach at GHLF for a discussion on the disproportionate burden of chronic disease in the Black community, barriers to health care, addressing racism in health care, and ultimately how we can come together as a community and advocate for our health year-round. In this conversation, we delve into actionable steps for fostering inclusivity and driving future advancements in health care access and equity.
