Ep 22 Special: Catalysts During Covid - Manny Lopes, President of East Boston Neighborhood Health Center

During these times of uncertainty and change, we have seen many organizations and leaders throughout the city of Boston and across the state, adapt and respond to the COVID-19 crisis. They have forged ahead to accomplish their missions, and solving new problems along the way. In each of these short episodes, we will talk with one of these change agents and  understand how they’ve had to adapt, as they respond to this crisis.

In this new series, Catalysts During the Crisis, each episode we will talk with one of these change agents and understand how they’ve had to adapt, as they respond to this crisis. This new series will provide insight as to what meaningful work is happening throughout the city of Boston and across the country, and how we can support those striving to provide support to those being most affected by the pandemic. 

In this episode, we hear from Manny Lopes, President of East Boston Neighborhood Health Center (EBNHC). We hear how EBNHC has adapted to continue to support their patients and those being affected by COVID-19, the community response in East Boston, Chelsea and Revere, and what needs to continue to happen to support communities being impacted the most by this pandemic.
