Program Description
• Esperanza Health Centers, one of the nation’s highest performing Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC), provides comprehensive, bilingual primary care and behavioral health services on Chicago’s Southwest side. They operate seven FQHC sites, serving some 50,000 patients annually. Last year, the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) awarded them the Health Center Quality Leader gold medal, which was given to only three other FQHCs in the state of Illinois.
• Esperanza provides comprehensive, integrated primary care across the lifespan: pediatrics, adolescent health, adult medicine, women’s health, geriatrics. They also offer mental health counseling, psychiatry, and substance abuse services. All services are provided regardless of a patient’s income, insurance, or immigration status. Nearly all their patient-facing staff are bilingual in English and Spanish, including all their physicians (70% of their patients report they are best served by Spanish-speaking medical providers). Approximately 80% of staff identify as Hispanic/Latinx, and over half live in the communities they serve.
• The grantee will establish a new Complex Trauma Counseling Program within their behavioral health department. Their counselors have noted that in the wake of COVID-19, patients are presenting with trauma symptoms that are more acute and entrenched than before the pandemic (zip codes consistently saw the highest COVID-19 case rates and death rates anywhere in the city or state). Two new roles will be created for this program, a Complex Trauma Counselor, and Manager of Complex Trauma Recovery Services to oversee this new program. Both of these positions will be occupied by current Esperanza behavioral health staff who will be elevated to take on these new tasks. Grantee will be providing specialty counseling services for a complex patient population with a high exposure to trauma and facilitating expanded group counseling initiatives and curriculum to address this unique set of patient needs.
