This week’s newsletter explores solutions to address the impact of medical debt on individuals and communities. First, a look at how healthcare debt deepens inequities and should be eliminated—a feature from NPQ’s Winter 2022 magazine, “New Narratives for Health: Evolving a Culture of Healing for All.” Next, a snapshot of medical debt’s ripple effects in Texas and Wisconsin. We then explore a model in Chicago where churches are taking on medical debt for their communities. Lastly, we encourage you to subscribe today for access to more health justice content in our winter issue and newsletter.
