The Intersection Where Anti-Racism and Healthcare Meet

In Their Own Words: Leveraging Authentic Stories

Personal stories and how they’re told matter. Learn how to tell deeply authentic, human stories that advance change at every level.

No one should be reduced to circumstance—but often, personal stories shared by healthcare providers and community organizations do just that. This webinar from the Camden Coalition outlines best practices for crafting personal stories that capture the whole person and advance fundamental change.

Expert speakers offer evidence of the detrimental role pity-evoking language plays in health and social sectors. Strategies for establishing and maintaining partnerships with people to tell their stories are outlined to guide communicators to empathetic storytelling that supports long-term social and policy goals.

Discover:

  • Detrimental effects of pity-evoking language
  • How empathy affects change
  • Partnership in storytelling

Learn to tell patient and community member stories as they want them to be told—and advance long-term structural change in the process.
