Reimagining Community-Centered Care

Everyone deserves safe, respectful, and dignified healthcare that offers choices tailored to their preferences and circumstances.

For many people, midwifery and birthing centers are disrupting the status quo by offering more choices and centering autonomy, cultural knowledge and lived experience.

What lessons may apply to other types of care—whether diabetes, cancer, cardiology, or overall public health?

Join leaders from community-based organizations and healthcare who are reimagining how care can be delivered in ways that are more flexible, responsive and equitable for everyone. The conversation will explore:

• Lessons on disrupting the status quo from maternal health
• Centering autonomy, dignity and lived experience to improve health outcomes
• Addressing social and structural barriers that limit equitable access to care
• Ways to encourage health systems to offer choices for individual needs and preferences
