Graduate Student Researcher at UCLA Hub for Health Intervention, Policy and Practice - Los Angeles, California, United States
The UCLA Hub for Health Intervention, Policy and Practice connects the academy, community and policy makers to address health disparities among diverse communities in Los Angeles and beyond. The Hub engages community members in meaningful, impactful, theory-driven, and sustainable research that informs high-level policy and street-level social justice health outcomes. UCLA HHIPP's work situates health policy within a social welfare and social justice framework. We espouse a broad definition of health and wellness with special consideration given to adverse social conditions, stigma, discrimination, poverty, racism, and homophobia.
