In this episode of West Michigan Weekend, host Phil Tower speaks with Salina Bishop, President and CEO of Ronald McDonald House Charities West Michigan (RMHCWM), who discusses her strategic vision for the organization, emphasizing its critical role in the region's evolving healthcare sector.

In our conversation, Salina discusses three key areas: securing a "seat at the table" in local healthcare, reshaping the narrative that RMHCWM is "more than just a place to stay," and providing "radical hospitality" to remove family barriers.

Bishop also highlights the impact of the recent $2.5 million expansion, which increased capacity to 25 family suites, allowing the 35-year-old nonprofit to better meet the increasing demand for specialized pediatric care in Grand Rapids.
