Funding for healthcare has reached an unprecedented
crossroad. But the path of Humboldt Park Health is secured through the
tenacious leadership of its president, José R. Sánchez. He tells the
Crisis Cast, "I wake up thinking I'm going to conquer the
world."
In this episode, Lissa Druss talks
with Mr. Sánchez about the critical role of safety net hospitals in
underserved communities. Sánchez shares just how vulnerable
community hospitals are, and how his team transformed Humboldt Park
Healthcare through key initiatives and fundraising. You'll learn
why he's seen a drop in the stigmas around mental health, and how
he has navigated the politics of healthcare.
This week's Crisis Cast heroes are
Michelle & Melissa Gomez,
creators of Tu Casa.
