#ICYMI, the St. Louis Integrated Health Network has partnered with Washington University in St. Louis to reduce health disparities in the St. Louis region. Dr. Diana C Parra from WashU Brown School WashU Arts & Sciences co-leads an initiative that aims to improve the health and lives of residents in the St. Louis Promise Zone, which includes parts of North St. Louis City and North St. Louis County. Through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention-funded Empowered Thriving Communities (ETC) cooperative, IHN and WashU?support community-driven projects that help make healthy food choices easier; promote safe and accessible physical activity; and improve access to health behavior and lifestyle treatment programs. ? The ETC cooperative is co-led by Dr. Parra Perez and Brittany Jones from IHN. In 2025, the cooperative will award 7 mini grants of $7,000 each. Previously, the ETC cooperative awarded 7 mini grants averaging $6,000 each to the following local organizations: ? - Rustic Roots Sanctuary - Urban Harvest STL - Ancient Healing Roots - Phi Global Farms - The Haven of Grace Maternity Shelter - Wesley House STL - A Red Circle ? Additionally, the ETC project recently integrated AI into its operations to make it easier for community members to access important health resources. The project has partnered with ThriveLink to help individuals sign up for programs like SNAP, WIC, and Medicaid on their phone. The technology helps reduce traditional barriers to healthcare while expanding the ETC project’s reach in the community. ?
