97: Social Determinants of Employment

Can your zip code determine your future? Data shows that where you grow up significantly influences your health, employment and financial opportunities, dramatically shaping your earning potential and quality of life. In our Meeting of Minds series, we invite you to listen in on conversations between leaders driving innovation in and outside of healthcare. In this episode, Audria Denker DNP, RN, FAADN, ANEF, Juatise Gathings, and Emily Fairchild, ADN, two leaders and a nursing student, compare notes on investing and building opportunity in under-resourced communities while simultaneously achieving business enterprise goals. Learn how Galen School of Nursing in rural Kentucky and a financial services call center in Chicago’s South Side are providing wraparound support alongside education and employment opportunities ensuring students and employees have the practical, social, and financial support they need to build their careers, communities, and thrive in their new programs and positions.
