Her radical and wildly successful solution to the problem of child poverty: give babies money.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDr. Hanna was already a bold innovator in pediatric and maternal care \u003ci\u003ebefore\u003c\/i\u003e she became internationally famous as the courageous whistleblower who exposed the Flint water crisis. But even as the crisis subsided, her patients--pregnant moms and newborns in the poorest city in the country--were still suffering. She saw it everyday: The moms were exhausted, with dark circles under their eyes; she saw signs of watered down formula as moms tried to stretch their resources; the mothers seemed distracted, anxious, and overwhelmed.
