Let's build a future where everyone gets the care they deserve.

Their work deeply resonates with my commitment to advancing community-centered, equitable systems of care. Iโ€™m honored to support and contribute to this mission."

"I am a member of the Health Justice Initiativeโ€™s Associate Board, where I serve as the secretary.

After working on the frontlines during the COVID-19 pandemic, I saw firsthand how disparities in healthcare in New York City impacted care and I knew I wanted to be a part of the solution.

Health Justice Initiativeโ€™s mission of providing free legal assistance to those who have experienced discrimination, language barriers, medical debt, lack access to insurance or other resources relating to medical care resonates with me deeply, and I am thrilled to serve on the Associate Board. โ€

What started as a vision became a room full of 100+ people who believe healthcare is a right worth fighting for. Our ๐ˆ๐ง๐š๐ฎ๐ ๐ฎ๐ซ๐š๐ฅ ๐’๐ฉ๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐๐ž๐ง๐ž๐Ÿ๐ข๐ญ ๐๐ซ๐ฎ๐ง๐œ๐ก was everything we hoped for, and more.

Thank you to every guest, sponsor, donor, volunteer, and supporter who made this possible. You showed up, you gave generously, and you reminded us why this work matters.

Health Justice Initiative raised approximately $๐Ÿ๐Ÿ“๐ŸŽ,๐ŸŽ๐ŸŽ๐ŸŽ. Every contribution goes directly to the mother buried under a wrongful medical bill, the child waiting on a denied insurance claim, the senior choosing between medication and meals, and every person who has ever felt invisible inside the system that was supposed to protect them. You made this possible.

This is just the beginning. And we are so glad you are part of it.
