Health Project Coordinator

Oct 2021 - Present
At PCDC, I started as an intern, supporting health projects that worked on achieving health equity for the targeted Chinese population of Philadelphia. These projects revolved around public health including the implementation of a first-ever 21-language survey that targeted COVID-19 vaccine barriers for AAPI communities in Pennsylvania. Other health-related projects I supported as an intern include a coloring contest to raise awareness for COVID vaccines for children. Starting full-time as of January 2023, I took over the coordination of vaccine clinics, along with continuing grant-funded health projects that expand from COVID-19 to tackling health issues such as Hepatitis B and mental health that target the Asian American population, particularly the Chinese population of Philadelphia.

Oct 2021 - Jan 2022
Assisted families and individuals in making sure they have health insurance, kept them up on requirements and insurance related deadlines. Helped coordinate uninsured individuals to finding the right coverage that's available for them. We worked with families from low income neighborhoods in a laundromat setting. Through this method we were able to engage with them in a low pressure and familiar setting that makes them comfortable. I was able to gain insightful knowledge on socioeconomic barriers that these families face. Show less
