This webinar will outline how Kaiser Permanente, in an effort to provide their transgender community expanded and holistic care, utilized a human centered CoDesign methodology to create a large scale, multi-region peer navigation program.

This webinar will provide an overview of patient-identified need surfacing; ethnographic interviews; observation and shadowing; group brainstorming; rapid prototyping; field testing; and spread. It will showcase the impacts and enhanced cultural relevance for the transgender community.
