“When you think about a person’s health, most people only think about the medical side, but there’s the social side as well. So it’s one thing to have your medical needs met, but what if you’re struggling to find adequate housing? What if you’re struggling to provide food for your family for three meals a day? Those are things that are going to affect your overall health. This network, Empower HR, is really a way for people to meet all of those needs.” –Laura Toni-Holsinger
