Show Notes
Communities of faith can be integral in supporting the health of individuals, especially when partnered with health care organizations. Guest host Dr. Panagis Galiatsatos talks with Dr. Daniel Hale, director of Johns Hopkins's Health Community Partnerships, and Imam Hassan Amin, the founder and director of the Muslim Social Service Agency in Baltimore, about how health organizations can partner with religious leaders to provide basic but critical health information. The collaboration can also help leaders de-stigmatize and demystify care for congregants to prevent and manage chronic and infectious diseases, including COVID-19.
