INCREASING ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE IN A CHANGING POLITICAL ENVIRONMENT

FOCUS
Based in New Jersey, my focus area is on increasing access to health care using an equitable lens. Today, people with special health care needs, chronic illness, and caregivers experience additional limitations in attaining optimal health outcomes. Through collaborating with insurance providers, policy makers, health care providers and community-based providers, I envision a culture of health that is accessible to all.

STRATEGIC INITIATIVE: App for Special Health Care Needs
The development of a digital resource that will highlight and provide accessible resources for nutrition-health-related information for individuals with special healthcare needs, their caregivers, and providers.
