This webinar will explore what it means to work with FQHCs on pragmatic cancer-based interventions, bridging the gap between academic research and the needs of community health centers. Julie Armin, PhD and Nancy Johnson, RN, MSN, MS, PhD will introduce the University of Arizona’s fruitful collaboration with El Rio Health, one of the largest federally qualified health centers in the country. The Q&A discussion will be led by Gloria D. Coronado, PhD, a national expert on issues of health disparities with extensive experience in interventions aimed at increasing screening rates at community health centers.
