This week in the Race + Power newsletter we are considering the importance of place. First, how can underresourced communities get access to medical care if they don’t have clinics and hospitals? Mobile health clinics can bring culturally competent healthcare to the people, where they are. Next, residents of the Montevista Comunidad mobile home community in Denver successfully organized to buy the land under their homes—and put down roots for the long term. Then, increasingly, people must do the impossible math of whether to leave in the face of climate disaster. What factors, including the financial costs, go into their decision? Finally, our upcoming fall issue of Nonprofit Quarterly Magazine grapples with the implications of the climate crisis for youth, in their own words.
