Diversity Science, led by Project Director Rachel Hardeman, PhD are developing a set of online learning (e-learning) modules to assist hospitals in meeting the training stipulations of California Dignity in Childbirth and Pregnancy Act (Senate Bill 464). Using best practices, the e-Learning experiences will use story-telling, evidence and concrete examples, bringing the content to life through the experiences of patients and providers. The e-Learning modules will be available free of charge. Learn more at our project webpage.
