Description

At the West Virginia University Center for Excellence in Disabilities, the Diversity and Disability Fellowship program works in collaboration with the West Virginia Maternal and Child Health LEND program. This poster presentation will cover how this collaboration has greatly benefited the students in both programs by increasing opportunities for Diversity and Disability Fellows for training, clinic/observation experiences and leadership development and by increasing diversity and cultural competence for LEND Trainees.
