Empowering primary care providers to lead change
through storytelling

The voices of primary care providers (PCPs) are urgently needed to help address the existing challenges faced by our healthcare system, especially those magnified by the COVID-19 pandemic. PCPs are at the front lines facing health inequities, inefficiencies in care, gaps in communication and knowledge sharing, and uncertain financial viability of clinics large and small.

This series will empower PCPs with tools and knowledge to enhance their narrative voice and to articulate issues more clearly for consumption by both policymakers and the public. Across eight weeks, PCPs will learn how to better share their stories and experiences by collaborating with an expert in public narrative in order to promote positive change in communities and clinics.

The series is limited to 20 participants with expectations for active listening and engagement from all participants to promote an environment that fosters community and trust among participants which will allow for more effective storytelling development. The best way to learn storytelling is to tell your story, practice and receive coaching and feedback through multiple small group breakout sessions in which everyone one shares.
