When we think of healthcare professionals we usually picture them treating illnesses. But the reality is that major health gaps aren't usually caused by clinical failures – they are the result of social, political, economic, or educational factors. Advocacy in healthcare involves using your voice and expertise to influence not only individual health, but the health of our society. Susan Kressly, president of the American Academy of Pediatrics, tells us how healthcare professionals can step up to make big changes, not just for the person right in front of them, but for whole communities.

This week on Listening Lyrics we welcome Eric Jones, who shares a playlist of the music that inspires him. All but one of the songs today are his selections, and he talks with us about why each one matters to him.
Eric (left, in photo with Pieter) is also a candidate in the race for California’s 4th Congressional District, which includes Davis, Napa, Vacaville, Woodland, and much of the North Bay. The 34-year-old Napa nonprofit leader is running as a Democrat in the 2026 election, challenging longtime incumbent Mike Thompson. Jones has focused his campaign on affordability, child and elder care, and addressing corporate tax loopholes.
This information is provided solely for listener context. The views expressed by any candidate are their own and do not represent those of KDRT.
