/We are so excited to be welcoming two new members to the Better Health Together Board of Directors team. Each of them brings unique expertise and insight to the table, and we look forward to seeing how their experiences inform the work we have ahead of us.
BHT asked them, "What drives you to advocate for our community?" Read below for their inspiring answers.
Luis Manriquez, M.D.
Assistant Clinical Professor | WSU Elson S Floyd College of Medicine
“Every day in our community people are working hard to support their families and yet there are massive inequalities in terms of health and that isn’t right. Everyone that works hard deserves the best chance at health. I advocate to advance health equity, the assurance of the conditions for optimal health for all. Health equity should be our guiding star in the health sector, if not society in general.”
Blake Redding
Executive Director | Spokane Treatment and Recovery Services
“I was born and raised in Spokane, WA. I plan to raise my family here and will do everything within my means to ensure the safest and healthiest community possible, for my family and for the individuals I have served over the last ten years.”
