PAST PROJECT / NATIONAL CAMPAIGN

SHRED
THE DEBT.

One example of the hub joining a larger Global Shapers campaign to address a community issue.

Medical debt was one issue the hub took on.

This page documents a past project; it does not define the Providence Hub’s current focus. As we rebuild, our next projects may address education, the environment, economic opportunity, public health, or another priority raised by the community.

MEDICAL DEBT RELIEF

NATIONAL CAMPAIGNHUB PARTICIPATION

Shred the Debt

Shred the Debt is a national campaign focused on medical debt. The Providence Hub has taken part in the campaign, which shows one way Shapers can work on the cost barriers that keep people from seeking care. It is not a Providence-created program.
