Our Team

Evelyn Figueroa, MD
Director

Because of Evelyn’s deep connection to her patients, she wanted to bridge social gaps that were hindering their health and, with patient and community input, developed anti-poverty operations in Pilsen. Social determinants such as food, housing, education, and discrimination are just as important as medical care. Dr. Figueroa wants to support transformative healthcare by bringing community-centered justice to Latinx, immigrant, and additional vulnerable groups. She has spent over two decades of her career serving the Pilsen community and has volunteered in Pilsen more than any other community.
