Placing Lived Expertise at the Center of Diabetes Prevention

While many health centers have engaged in quality improvement efforts for their diabetes prevention work, many health centers are not yet engaging consumers in planning and evaluation of diabetes programming. It is important to meaningfully engage consumers of health centers in conversations around prevention activities that are not only effective and appropriate, but trauma-informed as well. This national webinar will take a deep dive into consumer perspectives on diabetes prevention and strategies to better include the experience of health center consumers at decision-making tables. Guest speakers will represent consumers and staff of health center programs and will share specific recommendations for supporting diabetes prevention through stronger provider-consumer relationships.
