Founder and Director
Nicole K. Richards, PhD, MPH, PSM-1
As a dedicated advocate for health justice and community empowerment, my strong background in community engagement, research, and management brings a unique blend of skills and experience to my work.​​
​
Born and raised in rural Northern New York, I developed a deep connection to community and a passion for improving health and wellbeing. This drive led me to pursue education in healthcare management and public health.
​
With over ten years of community health and healthcare leadership experience, I've successfully led diverse teams and projects, ensuring that they are not only successful but also align with values of integrity and authenticity. I believe that true success comes from lifting others up, and I am dedicated to using my skills and experience to empower individuals and communities. Whether you're looking to improve healthcare access, employee satisfaction and health, enhance community outreach, or develop inclusive initiatives, I'm here to partner with you on your journey.
