Weekly we focus on the work of area individuals and organizations advancing equity in our community. This morning we welcome Jackie Hernandez, Community Connections Coordinator with Healthy Homes Coalition of West Michigan. We learn about their mission to prioritize children's health and wellbeing by eliminating harmful housing conditions, beginning in Grand Rapids’ hardest hit neighborhoods, through direct services, community organizing, and continuous collaboration. Joining the conversation is WGVU Grants Manager, Steve Chappell. This weekly radio segment is part of a grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation.
A WGVU initiative in partnership with the W.K. Kellogg Foundation using on-air programs and community events to explore issues of inclusion and equity.
