Congratulations to the 2018 Alameda County Care Connect Consumer and Family Fellows!

 

Alameda County Care Connect is pleased to present the 2018 Consumer and Family Fellows. We received strong interest in the fellowship and selected nine fellows with direct lived experience in the public health, behavioral health, criminal justice, housing, and child welfare systems. A year-long fellowship, Fellows will take part in monthly trainings and work on projects that help improve health care for the better beginning in September. Alameda County Care Connect will have better access to consumer and family insights that will help to inform system’s change efforts. On July 19, we held a meet and greet where fellows had the chance to build relationships, meet Alameda County Care Connect and the Alameda County Health Care Services Agency leadership, and learn more about Alameda County Care Connect.

We were impressed by fellows’ deep commitment to giving back to their communities, their journeys to heal and recover from physical, mental health, and personal challenges, and their leadership skills. Learn more about the consumer and family fellows at www.careconnectfellowship.com.
