Description

Jasmine Gonzalvo, PharmD, MPH, CDCES, FADCES, and Honey Yang Estrada, MPH, CHW, join this episode to discuss the vital role of community health workers (CHWs) in diabetes care. They share strategies for recruiting CHWs, integrating them into interprofessional care teams, and leveraging their lived experience to build trust and address barriers beyond the clinic walls. The conversation emphasizes listening to CHWs, fostering sustainable partnerships, and shifting power to communities—not just checking a box—to reduce disparities and drive better outcomes.
