Where it comes to helping you travel safely, we’re honored to be a partner of choice for hospitality businesses around the globe. Earlier this month, Sonesta International Hotels Corporation achieved the Sharecare Health Security VERIFIED designation across its North American portfolio. Stay Safe with Sonesta, the hotel leader’s rigorous health and cleanliness program, ensures each property meets or exceeds CDC and government requirements and guidance through Sharecare and Forbes Travel Guide’s third-party verification platform, which validate protocols and procedures to mitigate COVID-19 transmission and other public health risks. As Sonesta becomes the first large hotel company to earn this distinction portfolio-wide, we believe health security is becoming the future standard for travel and hospitality.

There’s an exciting transformation happening in Atlanta – Sharecare’s “hometown.” Last week, we joined civic, philanthropic, and local industry leaders to announce the launch of a new global health district in Midtown Atlanta – an effort we’ve been proud to support since its earliest stages. Thanks to the combined efforts of the Center for Global Health Innovation (CGHI) and a group of strategic partners with whom we’re proud to collaborate, Atlanta is poised to become the world’s leading hub for health and tech innovation, starting with one very tall first step – a 47-story tower that will serve as the heart of the district. As a physical manifestation of Sharecare’s mantra that we’re “all together better,” the district’s hub will help connect all the moving parts of global health, health technology, and life sciences, through public-private partnerships that will help us build a healthier, more sustainable future for our communities. Learn more about this new home for health innovation in the official announcement.

As we reflect on the meaning of “sharing care,” we’re grateful for the sacrifices of military veterans and honored to join Hidden Helpers, a coalition comprised of organizations pledging to fill the gaps in support and services for caregiving military kids and youth. Recently, representatives from the Elizabeth Dole Foundation (including the former senator herself), Wounded Warrior Project, and First Lady of the United States, Dr. Jill Biden, hosted an event at The White House to shine a light on the impact of caregiving on service members' families and children while commemorating the launch of Hidden Helpers. Since 2020, CareLinx by Sharecare has contributed free respite care services – which allow military and veteran caregivers to care for their children and better manage their households – to support more than 1,600 military and veteran families nationwide. Further, Sharecare has committed to extend CareLinx's contribution to support these efforts in 2022. To us, this represents the full circle of sharing care and what it means to be all together better.

In this special episode, host Robert Tuchman sat down with our very own founder and CEO, Jeff Arnold, to discuss his personal path and why his love for Sharecare's mission, team members, and users remains his steadfast passion.

U.S. maternal morbidity rates are the highest of any other developed country, despite ranking among the highest for maternal care spending. One of our Smart Omix team’s latest collaborations aims to change these outcomes through an important new initiative led by Scripps Research. PowerMom is a clinical research effort dedicated to empowering study participants and researchers to make discoveries that will lead to healthy pregnancies and healthy babies. With contributors like Sharecare, which is supporting the development of digital biomarkers for maternal health conditions with Smart Omix, the PowerMom consortium will not only address gaps in understanding the determinants of healthy pregnancies but also improve available care and interventions equitably.
