Gayle Porter is the co-developer and trainer of the award-winning Prime-Time Sisters Circle with Marilyn Gaston, MD, former assistant surgeon general. Prime-Time Sisters Circle is a theory-driven, empirically supported behavioral health intervention geared for middle-aged African American women. This course-based intervention is an integrated model of care that focuses on emotional health and risks; and promotes positive, healthy decision-making and  establishing social supports. Studies of the intervention have shown that participants were able to mitigate high-risk health behaviors. As a trainer at NNEDLearn, Dr. Porter has improved access to quality mental health care and linkage with primary care providers.  Her work with the NNED was noted by a major insurance provider because of the significant changes in the primary and mental health conditions of women in the community.
