Nevada Today featured Larson’s StreetReach program today, April 27, 2026. We are so honored and proud to have this feature giving attention to the hard work the team is doing on this project!

A quote from the article:

“Rather than one-time interactions, StreetReach emphasizes ongoing engagement, enabling providers to build relationships and respond more effectively to the complex, interconnected needs individuals face.

‘We are building a system of mutual trust and wellbeing,’ Brooks said. ‘Many of the people we work with remind us of the bias against our unhoused neighbors in traditional healthcare settings. Here, we have an opportunity to shift away from those implicit prejudices and move back toward non-judgmental care. We need to show up with an honest, caring approach to help heal the wounds of systemic inequities, but it will take time to do so.'”
