April is Alcohol Abuse Awareness Month, and we'd like to express our appreciation to the Mecklenburg County ABC Board for its investment in our Access to Care programs over the past few years, which allow us to screen patients for substance abuse disorders and create a pathway to treatment ...options.

Black Maternal Health Week (April 11-17) was extended as yesterday we co-hosted a Respectful Maternity Care Simulation with and at @unccharlotte and their Dept of Public Health Sciences (Lorenzo Hopper and Alicia Dahl, Ph.D., M.S., Shanika Jerger Butts, MPH, MBA) along with First TEAM America and ...Danette McLaurin Glass.

This simulation gives providers, students, and community members a first person POV into real-life negative care interactions Black birthing people have experienced. After the simulation, participants are debriefed and discuss their experiences. We were also pleased to learn that the daughter of Charlotte’s first Black ob/gyn, Dr. Kenneth Chambers, was present for the simulation (first photo, in animal print top).
