GPB 550 - Community Health & Cultural Competency

In contrast to clinical practice, the “patient” in public health is the community – which may be defined by a shared geography (such as neighborhood or state) or identity (such as race, ethnicity or sexuality). This class equips students with skills for engaging with the community, from making inquiries into problems, collaborating in solutions, and conducting interventions and education with awareness and culturally appropriate engagement.
