“We already work with many colleges, universities, and research centers. Health equity is at the core of our work. Boston SPHERE is a chance to make this more explicit and collaborative, to map out opportunities and needs, and to simplify processes so we can do more together.”
What Dr. Bisola Ojikutu has said
“As a city, we are committed to closing the 23-year life expectancy gap that exists between neighborhoods, and we need our community health centers to accomplish this goal. Community health centers are the front door to care, and they are being asked to hold that door open as federal cuts strip coverage from around 40,000 of our residents.”
