Carmen Velásquez is the founder of Alivio Medical Center and the former Executive Director. In the mid-1980s, she was very passionate and involved with issues surrounding barriers to healthcare. Troubled by the fact that the medical needs of so many Mexicans living in Pilsen, Little Village and Back of the Yards were being severely neglected, she garnered the support of fellow Latino community members and spearheaded a drive called Project Alivio.

Alivio Medical Center opened in 1989 to serve underserved communities in Chicago’s Pilsen, Little Village, and Back of the Yards.
