The Bridges to Build series originated on a call to action to focus on cultural and structural humility, as well as meeting patients where they are. The past two iterations have focused on TB in African American patients and TB in Binational patients. This training focuses on the Asian and Asian American (A/AA) community’s experience, access to care and the quality of care they receive. This training will focus on how the historical (and ongoing) experience of anti-Asian racism impacts A/AAs' access to care and the quality of care they receive.
