Abstract/Summary:
The author's project is designed to inform and equip community leadership regarding a dismal lack of trauma care, cancer care centers and quality health care in general within the predominately minority community of South Los Angeles. The author feels one major factor impacting this absence is racism. Workshops will educate on past mistreatment and absence of available health care in the community. A mixed-method research approach will be used for data analysis. Pre and post-test surveys will be given to participants to assess their awareness of racism in health care and the absence of trauma and cancer care centers.
