OUR BEGINNING

We started AT the Table

It started as a crazy idea. What if people - doctors, nurses, neighbors, family caretakers - got together without an agenda or any pretense and began talking about health?


Empezamos EN la Mesa

Comenzó como una idea loca. ¿Qué pasaría si las personas (médicos, enfermeras, vecinos, cuidadores familiares) se reunieran sin una agenda o pretensión y comenzaran a hablar sobre salud?

MISSION

Created with the people for the people.

Radical Health is a minority women-owned social enterprise.

We work at the intersection of community health and tech. We combine meaningful conversations with AI-enabled tech that helps people understand their health care rights during a visit, build trust, and develop self-advocacy. 


Creado con la gente para la gente.

Radical Health es una empresa social minoritaria propiedad de mujeres.

Radical Health es la primera corporación de beneficios de propiedad latina en Nueva York. Trabajamos en la intersección de la salud comunitaria y la tecnología. Combinamos conversaciones significativas con tecnología habilitada para la IA que ayuda a las personas a entender sus derechos de atención médica durante una visita, a generar confianza y a desarrollar la autogestión.

MEET THE FELLOWS

In 2022, the Restorative Health Circle Fellowship was launched with two cohorts. The fellowship continued in 2023 with two more cohorts. In total, Radical Health as trained 49 fellows.
