Our Executive Director, Sarah Cain, regularly speaks with medical students at Western Michigan University Homer Stryker MD School of Medicine as part of their course on Social Drivers of Health. Yesterday she shared insights on how poverty, homelessness, and housing insecurity directly impact health outcomes—and how advocacy can create real change. Sarah highlighted her work with the Housing Advocacy Collective and her experiences fighting for safe, affordable housing in Kalamazoo.
Our future healthcare providers play a vital role in shaping healthier communities, and its always inspiring to see their energy, curiosity, and commitment to addressing barriers beyond the exam room.
