Have you ever failed at something on your first try? I know I have

Clinical interventions can face setbacks too!

Stop by my poster (#258) to explore why implementation efforts sometimes fall short, and discover strategies to relaunch and succeed after failure!

Not enough people are talking about the fact that the BBB will have devastating effects on our immigrant communities

The final bill allocates $45 billion for immigration detention centers and $30 billion to hire more ICE personnel

This budget is higher than the military expenditure of 15 countries

My mom brought my sister and I to the U.S. for safety and opportunity. Today, both are being stripped from so many.

Assata Shakur said it best:
“No one is going to give you the education you need to overthrow them…”

We have always had to fight for knowledge, and we’re not done yet.

If you’re reading this, healthcare needs more people like you. Don’t let this added barrier deter you from serving the communities you come from❤️

So we’re supposed to believe that taking healthcare away from millions of Americans is patriotic?!?
July 4, 2025 at 3:56 AM
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again:

If you work in healthcare and support what the Senate just passed, you’re not truly putting your patients first.

Plain and simple.
July 2, 2025 at 5:39 AM
How does taking healthcare and food from millions make this country stronger?

It doesn’t. It just makes life harder for people already struggling to get by. This is not policy that helps people. It hurts them.
July 2, 2025 at 5:21 AM
Honestly, I’m not surprised the Senate passed the budget bill, but if the House passes it too, I am really worried about how hard this could hit our most vulnerable communities…
