    At Wellpoint Care Network, we have seen exactly how trauma, poverty, systemic racism, social injustices and other barriers create instability in all areas of life.

    The people in our care face education and health disparities, high unemployment rates and unaffordable housing. Whats worse, many have lost connections to resources, family, friends and other support systems.
