Building Capacity

“Mr. Kurt Begaye continues to be instrumental in our community engagement and disparities reduction efforts. He is skilled at intercultural communication and cultural intelligence, not only in working with diverse indigenous nations, but also diverse populations of color and minoritized groups (gender, sexual identity, social economic status, chemical health to name a few). Mr. Begaye has our African American Same Gender Loving Men, Latinx and Native American workgroups develop strategic plans to reduce HIV related disparities in our communities. His adoption of a service learning and community participatory approach gives agency to participants and help us establish the trusts needed to build long term partnerships.”
