Summary
What does it really mean to meet a community where they are? In this episode, David explores the nuances of community outreach in cancer care, and why a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t always work. Focusing on Indigenous communities in and around Buffalo, they speak with Dr. Rodney Haring and community outreach coordinator Will Maybee about the deep-rooted health disparities facing Native populations—and the historical trauma that helps explain them. From mistrust in the medical system to barriers in access and cultural understanding, they unpack the complex realities behind the data.
