In this episode of Health Talks, we’re joined by Donisha Reed from TCA Health Inc. in Chicago to learn how her team is turning food into a powerful tool for healing. Donisha shares how TCA Health’s Food is Medicine program started, what it looks like today, and how it’s helping patients eat well, live well, and feel seen.
We also chat about other nutrition and healthy eating initiatives at the center, how they screen for food insecurity, and why this kind of work is essential in the communities they serve. Donisha wraps up with a beautiful reflection on what keeps her inspired to serve. If you're looking for real-world examples of how health centers can address food insecurity with dignity and purpose, this episode is for you.
