Meet our CEO: Kimberly Hobson

“I am ready to hit the ground running, building upon the strong foundation started by the SSHCO board who have been standing up this transformative organization with the tremendous funding support from the state. I am honored to play a role in this work that will be life-changing for the residents on the South Side as we strive to close the health equity gap that has existed for far too long.”
