黑料正能量 Note: There is still time to join the MRLC and attend this presentation by our esteemed friends which has been getting rave reviews from Behavioral Health Leaders all across the country.听 黑料正能量 is now bringing our members this opportunity for you and your team to hear from the leaders in this field. 鈥淐ultural Activation鈥 is a type of consumer health activation that affirms personal cultural views on health and supports the need for these views to be incorporated into all aspects of health care, particularly behavioral health care. Since the achievement of health literacy must take place in the context of culture and community, cultural activation is a necessary part of the process.
听
This session will include the definition of 鈥渃ultural activation,鈥 descriptions of tools to help consumers engage in culturally-oriented discussions with providers 听which are called 鈥渃ultural activation prompts鈥, and a perspective on the strengths and challenges of this approach from a peer specialist鈥檚 perspective. Don鈥檛 miss this exciting webinar and chance to learn a new 鈥渃utting edge鈥 technology for active and successful engagement.
