Are you guys crazy?!
Yes . . . but in a good way.
We believe that no problem is too large to tackle. After all, we know how the David and Goliath story went.
We're now addressing one multi-billion-dollar problem: dialysis in America.
Dialysis itself is a microcosm of America's larger healthcare catastrophe, where huge corporations routinely prioritize profits over patient wellbeing.
As we work on dialysis, we're developing tools and strategies to address America's larger healthcare dysfunction.
Healthcare itself is tightly linked with other structural societal problems, like financialization, homelessness and child abuse/trafficking.
These may seem disconnected, but they're actually part of a system of interrelated harms, which must be considered together to be defused.
For example, any attempt to improve dialysis without tackling financialization and corporate power is likely to be futile.
No one person or organization can solve these problems. But their sheer size cannot prevent us from taking them on.
