About Us
Reinventing Healthcare,
One Changemaker at a Time
Healthcare is at a crossroads. The system as we know it is no longer sustainable, but meaningful change doesn’t happen alone. That’s where we come in.
HRC exists to identify, connect, support, and illuminate healthcare changemakers—people like you—who are working to shift healthcare from a system that profits a few to one that serves all. We are not just another healthcare initiative. We are a growing movement, shaping the future through collaboration, innovation, and action.
We envision a world where healthcare reform is driven by collective action, where change makers work together to create a compassionate and equitable system that prioritizes the health and wellness of every individual.
Our Vision
Our Mission
HRC is here to:
Identify those working to change healthcare—whether they are individuals, grassroots efforts, or established organizations.
Connect changemakers through community, events, and our developing impact network map.
Support through a shared sense of belonging, collaborative opportunities, emerging tools, and connections with people and resources to support your efforts.
Illuminate the great work being done, featuring changemakers and success stories.
We believe real change happens through networks, not hierarchies.
That’s why we are using the Two Loops Model to create an Impact Network —a growing web of innovators, problem-solvers, and leaders working together to co-create what’s next.
