Culture Journey is working with organizations looking at the social determinants of health from a strategic planning lens and how to develop best practices that help organizations understand the connection between underrepresented communities' cultures and their traditions and issues of poor health in America.
I know this is a real issue for our Latino/Hispanic/LatinX community. The increased diabetes among this population is one example of how vital organizations need to understand this culture and provide language access to help build trust and participation. But most importantly, address the potential bias and stereotypes that we may have towards this community.
This video provides an insight into the diabetes issue brought across borders.
