Five interprofessional teams received recognition for their work with underserved populations in the 2019 Public Health Excellence in Interprofessional Education Collaboration Award sponsored by the U.S. Public Health Service (USPHS) and the Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC), with the top award going to Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) Institute of Health Professions.
ASPPH is pleased to see a member among the four finalists, Dr. Jessica S. Kruger (University at Buffalo), along with colleagues from social work and law, winning acknowledgement for their project “University at Buffalo’s Lighthouse Clinic: An Interprofessional Initiative to Address Prominent Health Disparities in Western New York.” Congratulations!
