Challenges and Strategies in Delivering Primary Care to Marginalized Populations November 2015 Panel Event
Participant: “[It was] interesting to learn about the power linguistics play in healthcare, and [how it] creat[es] barriers for those in need."
Speaker: “You can't just start your careers as health care professionals without experiencing what the people are actually going through. If you truly want to solve the problem, you need to get out of your comfort zone, and see first-hand what life is like to be marginalized."
