My Story Weaves Our Story

Northwestern Prevention Collaborative has launched a new podcast series entitled “My Story Weaves Our Story.”

This virtual diversity panel has been created to be a series representing and reflecting the unique experiences, perspectives and viewpoints of the people and the communities in NPC’s service area.

“This series will serve as a space for people from the minority groups within our community to make their voices heard and to give others the opportunity to learn from their perspectives,” explains Ryan Cubbage, one of the two hosts of the program. Ryan is the Community Liaison and Training Coordinator for the Warren Coalition and NPC.
The first episode, released in late March, featured five panelists from five different communities: African American community, Hispanic/Latinx community, LGBTQIA+ community, Asian community and the Appalachian community. In future episodes, Ryan and his co-host, Warren Coalition and NPC Resilience & Diversity Coordinator Tina Stevens-Culbreath, will delve further into the rich diversity within each community.

The diversity panel is now available on NPC’s YouTube channel, Positive Vibes from the Valley, and the podcast version is available on all major podcast venues.
