IAM1532 - CEO Helps the Underrepresented Communities to Improve Health Care Issues

Oscar Delgado’s understanding of the power of compassionate healthcare began when he was a child accompanying his Mom on errands around Reno and Sparks.

His Mom helped support her family as a housekeeper in the maternity ward of Washoe Medical Center (now, it’s Renown). As one of a handful of Spanish speakers, she was called to provide translation services for Spanish-speaking patients who were navigating a largely English-speaking hospital.

They thank Oscar’s Mom for her assistance during a stressful time.

Those moments stuck with Oscar, and he’s devoted his career to ensuring that all the members of his community receive caring, respectful and helpful attention for their medical needs.

An experienced, innovative leader, Oscar Delgado serves as chief executive officer of Community Health Alliance, where he works with a team of nearly 300 medical and administrative professionals who meet the needs of primarily low-income patients.

With seven clinic locations as well as a mobile clinic serving the Reno-Sparks metropolitan area of northern Nevada, Community Health Alliance provides care to more than 25,000 patients.

Oscar provides strategic leadership to the organization, works closely with other community groups, and ensures that the $31 million annual budget of Community Health Alliance provides top-flight care.

Under Oscar’s leadership, the Community Health Alliance team takes pride in providing healthcare that is the equal of any in the region.

When Oscar was named CEO of Community Health Alliance in early 2019, he brought more than a decade of healthcare experience to the position. He had spearheaded outreach and development of programs that improved health outcomes in underrepresented communities. He played important roles in ensuring that multicultural communities got the word about state-sponsored health insurance plans. He worked closely with families of children with learning, physical and behavioral disabilities.

Even while he worked long hours on healthcare issues, Oscar also has served since 2012 as a member of the Reno City Council. He’s been an effective advocate for quality-of-life improvements in the ward he represents, and he’s been a leader for the entire city on issues ranging from zoning and recreation to public safety.

But even as he has blossomed into a respected, effective leader, Oscar Delgado never is far from that boy dedicated to the lessons of respectful compassion he learned from his mother.

IAM1526 - Founder Prepares High School Students for Success in College

With a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Regis College and a Juris Doctor in Law from Syracuse University College of Law, Honoria DaSilva-Kilgore has been practicing law for over 25 years. Her practice focuses on helping clients with numerous financial matters (real estate, estate, bankruptcy, debt, general matters) and long-term planning, yet one recurring theme that often crops up is inadequate planning regarding higher education, which can often lead to negative long-term life consequences.

Honoria DaSilva-Kilgore founded PCCI on the belief that a college education is one of the most important tools that can be utilized for success and that all college-bound students deserve to get good advice about where they should consider going and how to get there, in order to have the best shot at achieving their dreams. This takes preparation, time, and research which most students and parents/guardians do not have the time to do on their own. That is where PCCI comes in. It is her belief that it is never too early to start preparing high school students for success in college and to invest in their future.
