The Leadership Series: Breanna Lathrop Host: Steve Noblett

A few years ago, I picked up a great book through InterVarsity Press called "How Neighborhoods Make Us Sick, Restoring Health and Wellness to Our Communities". I was delighted to find out that it was authored by two ladies who work at Good Samaritan Health Clinic in Atlanta.

One of those ladies is Breanna Lathrop. We connected, and she's been a big part of CCHF ever since. Breanna's a great champion for Christian health care and for addressing social determinants of health as an exercise in loving our communities as Jesus does. She's a DMP with a master's in public health. And at the time of this interview, she was serving as the Chief Operating officer at Good Samaritan Health Center in Atlanta and is the Board Chair for CCHF.

Breanna's done a lot of workshops for CCHF conferences over the years, and I asked her to be a plenary speaker at the 2024 conference. Her talk was amazing! And if you were not there, you should look it up on our website at cchf.org or on YouTube. It was my privilege to sit down with her the night before her plenary sessions and just talk. This is that talk, and I hope you enjoy it.

Breanna co-authored a book titled "How Neighborhoods Make Us Sick: Restoring Health and Wellness to Our Communities". You can currently purchase her book on Amazon: https://a.co/d/iQSxWHp
