Hear Me Now: Acts of kindness continue during pandemic

Featuring Melissa Tiberio and Mafe Chase, Portland, Oregon

Hear Me Now is a storytelling program at Providence, initially created in partnership with StoryCorps. Hear Me Now’s mission is to give patients, loved ones, and caregivers a sacred space to share their stories and make healthcare more humane.
