[Learning Collaborative] “Diabetes Continuum of Care: Environmental Impacts on Diabetes Management and Access to Care” Session 3
Asian American (AA) populations face unique challenges with respect to Type 2 Diabetes. AA populations appear to have one of the lowest rates of diabetes compared to other racial/ethnic groups. However, when the AA populations are disaggregated, specific subgroups have significantly higher rates of diabetes compared to other racial/ethnic groups. Join Association of Asian Pacific Community Health Organizations (AAPCHO), Farmworker Justice, and the National Network for Oral Health Access for this Learning Collaborative which will focus on environmental justice and the impacts of a changing climate on diabetes management and access to care. Guest speakers will discuss the intersection of environmental justice with diabetes care and management in health centers, strategies to support patients impacted by climate-related natural disasters, and practical steps and tools to support health center staff in promoting access to care.

[Learning Collaborative] Hepatitis B Community Health Center Learning Collaborative: Getting To Protected – Session 1
Hep B United, co-founded and co-chaired by the Hepatitis B Foundation and the Association of Asian Pacific Community Health Organizations (AAPCHO), is excited to announce its new Community Health Center Learning Collaborative (LC) module, “Getting to Protected.” The “Getting to Protected” module will focus on strategies for improving hepatitis B screening and vaccination, and keeping patients engaged. This virtual LC will foster a small cohort of community-based health centers, federally qualified health centers (FQHCs), and/or FQHC look-alikes serving Asian American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, African Immigrant, and/or drug-using communities in the US and/or its territories. The goal is for attendees to improve their capacity to implement hepatitis B education, screening, vaccination, and linkage to care programs and promote cross-sector partnerships with community-based organizations. The collaborative will have selected community health centers with model hepatitis B community engagement, prevention, and control programs, share their best practices, skills, strategies, and tested resources.
