Episode #3 - Access To Care (National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day 2023 #NBHAAD)

The CNP Podcast

Access to medical care is an important right for all of us, but many don’t have that access or if they do, haven’t always had positive experiences with medical systems. From getting access to the MPox vaccine to personal experiences with the medical system, CNP’s Narrative Justice Leadership Lab participants explore access to care.

Group Members: Thomas Epps, Anthony Carter, Cecilia Dennis and Ryan Canty

Special Guests: Henry Philyaw and Kenyon Farrow

About National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day:

The first National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (#NBHAAD) was marked in 1999 as a grassroots-education effort to raise awareness about HIV and AIDS prevention, care, and treatment in Black communities.

This observance is an opportunity to increase HIV education, testing, community involvement, and treatment among Black communities.
