Plot twist! Our fifth episode is a special one, the first in our Spotlight Series, which will focus on a city department outside of City Planning, but that still has incredibly important ties to planning a city. Today we do a deep dive into Providence's Healthy Communities Office with its director, Laurie Moise Sears. We discuss addressing disparities in healthcare accessibility amongst BIPOC community members, navigating health solutions and advocacy during a pandemic, launching a behavioral health crisis program, and everyone's favorite Rhode Islander, Viola Davis.
