About this episode

Chantel Jackson discusses a community-centered approach to healthcare and the importance of addressing health disparities.

What does healthcare look like when a community-centered approach takes the lead? New York State Assembly Member Chantel Jackson, a licensed social worker representing New York’s 79th District, joins us to discuss increasing access to and trust in healthcare services. With a background in New York City public schools, Assembly Member Jackson brings a unique, holistic perspective to the legislature, recognizing that health is inextricably linked to social and emotional well-being. She advocates for an "all of the above" approach to reform, addressing everything from noise pollution to neighborhood safety to food insecurity to financial literacy. Together, we unpack the stark realities of health disparities in the Bronx and around the country, and discuss how legislators and industry leaders can create meaningful change. ________ Sign up for our email list .
