Strengthening our Policy Work

Join us in welcoming Andrea Freeman!

Since our beginning years in the mid-1990s, our organization has worked on policy as a way to advance, scale, and sustain our community health work in partnership with local and statewide collaborations. In more recent years, we have built different ways to inform action on policy through our regional assessments, community health reports, and community data platforms. 

We are thrilled to announce that we have now invested in a Director of Data to Policy Action position to help take health equity policy action to a new level for our western MA region. Andrea is a seasoned leader, a passionate advocate, strategic thinker, and can bring a smile or laugh to heavy policy discussions! We are so lucky to have her with us working on behalf of our region.
