“Navigating Neighborhood and Transportation Social Drivers of Health” Learning Collaborative |
Application for Participation
Description of Learning Collaborative:
Where people live can directly influence their health. Neighborhood context, built environment, and reliable transportation play a crucial role in shaping health and well-being. Special and vulnerable populations often face additional barriers to care that are compounded by SDOH. Health centers are often well-equipped to address these SDOH because of their knowledge of the social, cultural, and economic needs of their patients.
Association of Asian Pacific Community Health Organizations (AAPCHO) will facilitate a learning collaborative for health centers serving special and vulnerable populations to explore effective strategies to address SDOH including transportation, environmental health, and neighborhood safety and sense of community. Participants will also have the opportunity to review and evaluate a closed-loop SDOH referral protocol that can be implemented at their health centers.
The learning collaborative consists of four 90-minute sessions, held on:
