The notion is simple: bring together a diverse group of stakeholders to address health and other inequities on the West Side. However, we humbly recognize that elevating equity and closing the health disparity gap is no small feat. For this very reason, we invited a broad collective of residents, Larry Goodman, MD healthcare providers, educators, government leaders, businesses, Chief Executive Officer grant makers, community-based organizations, members of the faith Rush University Medical Center community, and others to come together to hear from one another on how to make the West Side Total Health Collaborative a reality.

    Dr. AФ Martin Luther KingJr. DREAM WEEK 2020 CANDLELIGHT VIGIL Monday, January 20, 2020 4 p.m. Alice Millar Chapel Presented by the Alpha Mu Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc. and the MLK Commemoration Committee — WELCOME Greetings, On behalf of the brothers of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc., Alpha Mu Chapter, I would like to warmly welcome you to the 41st annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Candlelight Vigil. The vigil is a celebratory time for the community to come together and commemorate the life, legacy, and accomplishments of Dr. King. I would like to thank tonight’s panelists—Karen Pittenger, David Robinson, and Mark Saint—for joining us, as well as the Northwest- ern University MLK Commemoration Committee for all they’ve done to make this event possible. I would also like to offer a special thank-you to Alice Palmer for joining us as moderator and for all the meaningful work she did to help with the creation of this annual event. We would also like to thank all of you for taking time out of your day to celebrate and reflect on the impact of Dr. King’s legacy. Without the valiant and resolute minds of Dr. King and those akin, most of us wouldn’t be where we are today. Our panelists today work closely with foundations that embody the ideals that Dr. King expressed to the community. On that note, as we set aside this day to acknowledge Dr. King’s dream, let us remind ourselves that we can and should continue to hold up and reimagine his ideals so that his dream manifests into reality.
