The Last Mile: Reaching the Hardest to Serve
Season 1
Episode 17
Leaders and on-the-ground innovators are finding new ways to connect the hardest-to-serve populations with effective care. More than 5 million community health workers in more than 25 countries are reaching isolated populations and taking aim at disparities, from Rwanda, Uganda, and Liberia to Seattle and Camden, NJ. But barriers still need to be overcome in many places and resources are needed.
