“Dr. Glenda served as our subject matter expert for a health education series that was part of a major initiative, the “How Do I…” Campaign, to improve health literacy and empower our community to take charge and ownership of their health and well-being. She played an instrumental role in the success of the webinar series “Making the Healthcare System Work Better for You” and delivered complex health related topics in a very clear, relatable, and empowering way, equipping our audience with practical tools to understand their patient rights, navigate the healthcare system, advocate for themselves and their loved ones, and make informed decisions. Her message aligned perfectly with our mission to ignite a health empowerment movement rooted in knowledge, prevention, and personal agency. Though designed for Black Californians, Dr. Glenda’s insights resonate with anyone ready to take ownership of their health, especially now more than ever.”
