Covers: Health care and diversity, equity, and inclusion

2025 Power 100: Bill Wallace

Not many can claim to have led at a single institution for half a century, but Wallace can. Having joined the Museum of Worcester as executive director in 1976, Wallace has guided the organization through 1/3rd of its existence, and his impact can be seen in almost every corner.

2025 Power 100: Elizabeth Wambui

Serving as Fonatine’s first director of diversity, inclusion, and community impact, she initiates projects that energize the next generation of builders and ensure they reflect the richness and diversity of the communities they come from.

2025 Power 100: Virginia Orlando & Candace Atchue

Seed to Stem is home decor mecca, which basically makes Orlando and Atchue curating prophets.

2025 Power 100: Michael London

London has mastered growing a tech company better than almost every other company in the U.S.

2025 Power 100: Chelsey Patriss

Patriss had never imagined herself in a public health career when she joined the Health Equity Partnership, but here she is, 11 years later, standing at the head of a nonprofit becoming all the more important in a region where healthcare options are declining.

2025 Power 100: Amie Shei

Shei addresses the nuanced and complicated need for health equity by using an intersectional and holistic approach as she tirelessly advocates for those who don’t have a seat at the table. In February, she was honored as Massachusetts Woman of the Year 2025 by USA Today.

2025 Power 100: Rozanna Penney

Penney has turned around the sinking ship that was Heywood Healthcare and today, the once-floundering system is breathing a sigh of relief.

2025 Power 100: Dr. Cherise Hamblin

As maternal morbidity rates continue to rise throughout the state, Hamblin has become one of the region’s most ardent advocates for the interrelated causes of addressing Black maternal health and diversifying healthcare professionals.

2025 Power 100: Dr. Eric Dickson

When Nashoba Valley Medical Center in Ayer was about to close in the summer of 2024, Dickson said he was looking into every opportunity possible to support the region left without its most central hospital.

2025 Power 100: Louis Brady

As CEO, Brady has brought FHCW, the region’s largest federally qualified health center, back from the financial brink it was tiptoing off of just three years ago.
