Using storytelling, the Grapevine Health podcast desires to improve community health literacy. The voice of community members is central to the podcast, featuring community folks who have a story to tell about their health care scares, experiences, fears, and observations. Dr. Lisa Fitzpatrick will facilitate conversations between the community member telling the story and an expert to help dispel myths and help people understand the nuances of the medical or scientific info being shared.
