WMTY.world Monthly Meeting (August 19, 2026)

WMTY–Cleveland began as an idea sparked by three individuals: Maureen Bisognano, Keisha Krumm, and Scott Keller. Each has dedicated their life to designing and building healthier communities, but each comes to the work from a different perspective, from national health policy, health systems to neighborhoods and local relationships. WMTY–Cleveland is the platform helping move this idea into action by strengthening neighborhoods, and the people who live in them, to have a voice in shaping their own health and well-being in a city dominated by two major healthcare systems. Scott and Keisha will discuss how WMTY–Cleveland is helping launch five Neighborhood Healthy Villages, with “What matters to you and your community?” as the foundational principle. They will also share the personal journeys that led to this collaboration, how WMTY is changing their perspectives, and how the work is instilling hope in themselves, their organizations, and the communities they serve – and how and why WMTY-Cleveland is growing.

Keisha leads Greater Cleveland Congregations, a nonpartisan, multiracial, multifaith organization that builds power for social justice by bringing people together across Cuyahoga County to address critical issues, take collective action, and strengthen communities. Scott leads Dynamis, which for the past 30 years has helped healthcare providers and the communities they serve design and fund Healthy Villages at various scales, integrating town planning, community health, and economic development.
