We are coming up on two years since we launched a period of reflecting, reimagining and recommitting at our center’s tenth anniversary. We are now fully into a major strategic pivot on our quest to promote place-based social transformation. We dedicate this episode to bring our listeners fully up to speed on the next chapter of our mission. To describe the details of our organizational pivot, I am joined by two colleagues who are helping us to bridge from our first decade of work and a third colleague who has recently joined to advance our new focus.
Debbie Wilber is our Associate Director at NIMC and a Research Associate at the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences at Case Western. Debbie serves both as our COO and as a leader of some of our project work. She’s been with us for five years.
Salin Geevarghese is the principal of his consulting firm SGG Insight and has been a constant collaborator with our center since 2016. He has helped lead our Mixed-Income Strategic Alliance work as well as our consultation with the Washington Housing Conservancy in D.C.
Laylah Allen joined us two months ago as our first ever Senior Community Builder on staff. She brings experience in community outreach, strategic partnerships, and youth mental health and wellness. She joined us from the Swetland Center for Environmental Health at Case Western.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
