Redefining Quality of Care in Sexual and Reproductive Health

The path to global reproductive rights often begins in the most local of places—a single clinic, a single conversation, a single patient.In this episode of the Public Health Insight Podcast, host Purva Mehta explores how Traci Baird’s career unfolded from counselling women in a North Carolina clinic to scaling abortion access across five continents. Along the way, she redefined what quality care looks like, led bold expansions into medication abortion, and championed inclusive sexual health education for youth. Now as President and CEO of EngenderHealth, she reflects on the moments that shaped her leadership and the lessons that still guide her through uncertainty.References for Our Discussion◼️EngenderHealth◼️DOGE Makes Its Latest Errors Harder to FindGuest◼️Traci BairdHost(s) Purva Mehta, BMSc, MScProducer(s)◼️ Gordon Thane, BMSc, MPH, PMP®Production Notes◼️ Music from Johnny Harris x Tom Fox: The Music RoomSubscribe to the NewsletterSubscribe to The Insight newsletter so you don’t miss out on the latest podcast episodes, live events, job skills, learning opportunities, and other engaging professional development content here.Leave Us Some FeedbackIf you enjoy our podcasts, be sure to subscribe and leave us a rating on Apple Podcast or Spotify, and spread the word to your friends to help us get discovered by more people.
