Roanoke Chowan Community Health Center

Nasteha Mohamed, psychiatric care coordinator at the Community-University Health Care Center in Minneapolis, speaks with a patient at the health center. The center works to treat patients with a chronic disease like diabetes holistically, and a medical team works to treat mental health issues, too. "You can't treat the mind and the body separately. They’re inseparable," Mohamed said. "To have colleagues from different fields working together to treat the patient as a whole is incredible." (Photo by Donnie Hedden for Direct Relief)
