The first installment of Mix it Up will feature Dr. Kathileen Boozer, a previous board member of Waco AHEC and a current featured speaker on chronic care issues in healthcare.

Mix It Up is an online webinar series on intersectional issues for healthcare students and community members. Through a more conversational, casual tone, attendees have the opportunity to ask questions, network, and engage deeply. Each session starts with a 30-45 minute presentation from the speaker, and afterwards we break into Q&A for the remainder of the time. AHEC Scholars may receive an hour in credit towards their hours for attending the session.
