Places aren't passive. They’re built from biography, history, memory, and struggle.
A park bench, a church, a town square—none of these are neutral. They carry the weight of who used them, who was excluded, and how people remember.

Chicago isn’t just historic—it’s instructional.
As a social worker, I see cities like Chicago as living texts on race, resistance, and community care.
We need to ground our work in the places we serve.

Really exciting to see the latest Urban Health Index launch today!
It shows us that health is not random - but built in people's environments.
We're calling on professionals to use the UHI to target interventions, inform local strategies and drive equitable policies.
