Show Notes

Health justice is a community led movement for power building and transformational change. Listen as Clovia “Ms Community Clo” Lawrence shares how she has fostered multidisciplinary partnerships within her community that have impacted the lives of many in her community. Her blueprint is simple - have a heart to serve, operate in your strengths, and identify a team of people who can help you achieve your mission. Ms. Community Clo lives by the motto of "every day I wake up, make an impact" and that is what drives her community initiatives in the local Richmond, Virginia area.

This season is brought to you as a collaboration between Patient Advocate Foundation and Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center at Virginia Commonwealth University, a project made possible in part by support from the Danaher Foundation.
