Building a healthier West Side means breaking down barriers to care. Cristina Perez, a Community Health Worker at Universidad Popular, sees first-hand how limited access to Medicaid and financial constraints can prevent our neighbors from getting the help they need.
At Wellness West, we are dedicated to bridging these gaps by connecting individuals with the resources and medical services they deserve—regardless of their ability to pay.

The numbers are a call to action. 📉

New data from Crain’s Chicago Business highlights the staggering impact of projected Medicaid cuts. By 2029, nearly 220,000 Illinoisans could lose coverage a number expected to reach 400,000 by 2034.

At Wellness West, we know that losing health coverage isn’t just a statistic; it’s a barrier to life-saving care. We are working harder than ever to navigate these shifts and advocate for the protection of our community’s most vital health lifelines.
