A Journey of Tenacity, Progress, and Sustainability

February 26, 2025

In recent weeks, Heartland Alliance Health faced the difficult prospect of closing due to financial challenges. Michael Reese Health Trust is proud to have acted as a bridge to support their path toward sustainability.

“The tenacity and resilience of Heartland Alliance Health is nothing short of inspiring. They’ve worked tirelessly to keep their doors open, ensuring that every Chicagoan—including our homeless neighbors—has access to equitable healthcare,” said Blair Harvey, MSW, Chief Program Officer, Michael Reese Health Trust. “In these challenging times, institutions like Heartland Alliance Health are more essential than ever. Michael Reese is deeply grateful to collaborate in this work and stand alongside other public and private funders to help Heartland Alliance Health find a path forward while not disrupting services.”
