You’ll hear stories about health, economic mobility, housing, education, mental health, entrepreneurship, civic engagement, and the connections that make communities thrive. Whether we’re breaking down policy, highlighting grassroots organizations, or sharing lessons from people doing the work, every conversation is rooted in one question: How do we move the city forward? If you believe healthier communities are built together, you’re in the right place.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-21T18:18:49.549941+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/my-city-talks-6298840"},"episode":{"title":"Achieving Health Equity Through Community Empowerment with Dr. Ebonee Johnson","slug":"achieving-health-equity-through-community-empowerment-with-dr-ebonee-johnson","published_at":"2023-04-25T10:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/my-city-talks-6298840/achieving-health-equity-through-community-empowerment-with-dr-ebonee-johnson","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/my-city-talks-6298840","url":"https://mycitymyhealth.transistor.fm/11","audio_url":"https://2.gum.fm/op3.dev/e/pdcn.co/e/pscrb.fm/rss/p/pdst.fm/e/dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/media.transistor.fm/571d48e6/20f6316a.mp3","summary":"Join host Lauren Whiteman as she discusses achieving health equity through community empowerment with Dr. Ebonee Johnson, an expert in health equity research and the project director of PEER, a community-based organization focused on HIV and substance abuse prevention.
