Community health center CEOs discussed how they’re tackling challenges tied to health inequities and more during a roundtable last week in Madison hosted by Wisconsin Health News. From rising behavioral health demands to persistent health inequities to the workforce crisis, community health centers are on the front lines of the state’s most pressing health issues.

Panelists at the event were Kim Hawthorne, CEO, Scenic Bluffs Community Health Centers; Dr. Julie Schuller, CEO, Sixteenth Street Community Health Centers; and Olivia Nichols, CEO, Rock River Community Clinic.
