This episode continues our podcast series focused on impacting community change through grassroots community leadership. In this series, we are shining the spotlight on local everyday community leaders. In this episode we talk with three community leaders who share a passion for promoting health and wellness.
Quiana Howard has transitioned her career over the past decade from nail technician to Cardiovascular Health Equity Scientist. While pursuing her doctorate in nursing at Case Western Reserve University, Quiana also works full-time and leads community health clinics offering free cardiovascular risk screenings for low-income Cleveland residents. In 2016, Becca Britton founded Neighborhood Pets Outreach and Resource Center, a community-based non-profit focused on supporting low-income pet owners. Neighborhood Pets uses a dynamic intuitive model based on relationship and trust-building within the community. Sarah Murphy is a proud alumna and now one of the leaders of Edna House, a nonprofit that ensures access to safe, supportive substance abuse recovery programming and longer-term residential housing. She has a lead role at The Edna House Residence and Education Center.
