ABOUT
SHARED HARVEST
Shared Harvest is a social enterprise benefit corporation providing public health relief, education and guidance to vulnerable communities while building for-purpose health technology solutions to tackle frontline workforce wellness.
We are a mission-oriented company leading systemic change through empathy-driven technology. Our non-profit 501c3 is tackling the student debt crisis and advocating for mental health for our frontline and community health workers and practitioners. Our objective is to provide medical relief, volunteer management, and workforce capacity-building.
Campaign Project #RESUS is a $25M endeavor to strengthen the BIPOC medical pipeline through a series of debt reduction initiatives, mental health services, and building a network of clinical resources and tools for young health professionals.
This unique program addresses health inequities and supports frontline health professionals while also helping under-resourced communities access vital health services from a diverse population of health practitioners.
PROJECT #RESUS: THE PROBLEM
The US Healthcare System is in crisis, and the COVID-19 pandemic has just exacerbated this crisis. Our frontline workers are mentally, emotionally, and financially exhausted.
If we do not act now, the BIPOC and female professional medical practitioner pipeline will continue to be depleted, adversely impacting access to healthcare across the country.
THE SOLUTION: PROJECT #RESUS
FINANCIAL SECURITY: Shared Harvest works with non-profit community organizations and for-
profit social enterprises to offer project-based volunteer and/or employment opportunities for BIPOC and female-identified medical practitioners. Network members are guaranteed up to $1000 a month in financial payments toward their student loan debt. Medical practitioners can pay off up to $100,000 in student loan debt over the course of the three-year pilot program via Project #RESUS.
EMOTIONAL WELLBEING: Shared Harvest works with a network of clinical behavioral health providers to offer
free AND confidential mental health and wellness services. Services are accessible 24/7, both in-person and virtually. Furthermore, clinical behavioral health providers are available without the burden of the practitioner’s employer finding out, giving them the opportunity to access support whenever and wherever is best for them.
PRACTICE DEVELOPMENT: Shared Harvest offers mentorship and educational opportunities with experts
from an array of healthcare fields that help to support practitioners’ career goals and professional development. Practitioners who participate gain valuable insight, develop leadership skills, engage in interactive career development opportunities, and receive continuing education credits.
PEER-TO-PEER LEARNING: Shared Harvest creates safe spaces for BIPOC and female-identified medical
practitioners to network, share information, gain support, develop personal connections, create opportunities, and learn from one another to advance their careers. Networking forums are available in-person and virtually through the use of online membership groups, resource libraries, and soon-to-be shared clinical workspaces nationwide.
OUR GOAL is to transform the culture of healthcare by combating structural racism, addressing workforce inequities, as well as increasing access to a diverse community of medical practitioners who have improved emotional well-being. Shared Harvestsupports BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) and female-identified medical practitioners in achieving financial freedom and fulfilling professional goals.
Together we can RESUScitate the pipeline of medical practitioners.
