Cleveland | Community Organizing
Chantal Dothey is a native of Belgium but has lived in Cleveland for 40 years. She spent her career treating the smallest babies and their parents. Taking care of children who could not talk for themselves, she learned first-hand the inequalities of living in a low-income household and the effect of poverty and redlining on the health of small babies who develop failure to thrive, asthma, anemia, lead poisoning and who are often exposed to gun violence. Chantal is active with Black on Black Inc., the Carl Stokes Brigade, CLASH, MedWish, Seeds of Literacy, Cleveland Peace Action and God Before Guns. Chantal obtained her medical degree at the Free University of Brussels, completed her pediatric residency at the University of Columbia Missouri and a fellowship in Neonatology at MetroHealth Medical Center. She obtained a Master’s in Nutrition from Case Western Reserve University.
