Focus
- The purpose of my research is to validate the value of school based health programs as an efficient and effective model for improving outcomes for children. Research projects have included the impact of school based health programs on access to care, reduced cost to the Medicaid system, improved health outcomes for children with chronic diseases (i.e. asthma, obesity), and improved school attendance for those enrolled in the clinics.
