How does your Brown training impact your work at RI KIDS COUNT?
My work as a health policy analyst at RI KIDS COUNT has been shaped by my public health passion and training. My MPH experience helped me explore the landscape of maternal and child health in Rhode Island before diving into work that frames children's health topics around, not just health care, but overall well-being and other determinants of health.
