Dignity-Centered Care: Deepening Equity in Community Health

In this special crossover episode with Center for Care Innovations’s Health Pilots podcast, we explore how the Petaluma Health Center team in Point Reyes and Bolinas is reshaping healthcare with a dignity-centered approach. We're joined by guests, Judith Bravo and Christina Gomez-Mira, as they share their journey of fostering equity, trust, and connection within their clinic and community through their work in CCI’s Resilient Beginnings Network and their collaboration with Vital Village Networks. Together, they reflect on what it takes to build a more equitable, trauma-informed healthcare space—not just for patients, but also for staff. From addressing power dynamics within the clinic to deepening engagement with their rural Latino community, they share key moments of growth, learning, and challenge.Featured guest:Judith Bravo, Patient Navigator, Point Reyes and Bolinas, Petaluma Health CenterChristina Gomez-Mira, MD: Medical Director at Point Reyes and Bolinas, Petaluma Health CenterRonda Alexander, Director of National Partnerships, NOW at Vital Village NetworksResourcesLearn more about CCI’s Resilient Beginnings Network Listen and subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen Health Pilots Produced by: Networks of Opportunity for Child Wellbeing & Center for Care InnovationsMusic: Want U W/ Me (Instrumental Mix), by Akira Sora, From the Free Music Archive, CC BY 4.0Episode Edited By: Wayfare & Resonate Recordings
