Harnessing the power of “man-to-man talks” to improve men’s health
Date postedNovember 10, 2023
A common observation led Terri Jowers and Guillermo Wippold, Ph.D., to join forces: Only about a quarter of the people who attend health screenings or health promotion events are men.
Jowers is the interim executive director of the South Carolina Community Health Worker Association (SCCHWA) and served as director of Healthy Columbia, a grassroots organization aiming to improve health in the city’s under-resourced neighborhoods, from 2012 to 2023. Wippold is a University of South Carolina researcher with a strong interest in community-based interventions.
