EP3: Redistributing power to marginalized individuals and communities (Advancing Sexual and Reproductive Health Equity in Family Planning)

Season 1 Episode 3

Featuring Mandy Fleming, Manager at Flathead Family Planning in Kalispell Montana, and Dr. Karen Scott, founding CEO and owner of Birthing Cultural Rigor, LLC and adjunct associate professor at University of California San Francisco, this episode includes a discussion of how healthcare providers and clinic administrators can work to redistribute power to marginalized individuals and communities and create systems that meet people’s needs, inside and outside the formal health care system.

This episode is part of the Advancing Sexual and Reproductive Health Equity in Family Planning podcast series from the Reproductive Health National Training Center. The four-part series explores tactics, programs, frameworks and ideals to help your program address inequities on site at family planning clinics and provide more patient-centered care. Each episode is based on a theme outlined in Evolving the Preconception Health Framework: A Call for Reproductive and Sexual Health Equity. The series is hosted by Dr. Raegan McDonald-Mosley, CEO of Power to Decide, the campaign to prevent unplanned pregnancy.
