Applying Existing Skills to Emerging Issues

“Being at PHI has given me both the freedom and the support to take what we’ve learned from our work over the last years and apply it in a very urgent arena: the issue of opioid abuse and its impacts on communities.

“PHI provides a comprehensive approach to the business end of the work, which frees me up from trying to find the people to do that.

“There’s also a variety of opportunities here for thinking and working with PHI’s community of like-minded people. We all believe we’re moving a complex social justice agenda forward, and there’s a huge amount of talent so there’s always somebody to talk to.”

— Carmen Nevarez, MD, MPH, Director, PHI’s Center for Health Leadership and Practice and PHI Vice President for External Relations
