Much love @TeenVogue for sharing my story.

I came from a place where my options were limited as a young black man.

I'm only here b/c of the heroes in my life.

I'll spend the rest of my life paying their acts of kindness forward.

Happy New Year from the ER!

Could not be more proud of our @Link_Health_org team and to announce our selection as awardees of Data.org and @Mastercard Center for Inclusive Growth’s AI to Accelerate Inclusion Challenge—chosen from over 500 applicants across 82 countries!

What started at @MassGeneralEM has quickly blossomed into an organization that has helped to disperse over $3 million in federal and state benefits across health systems that serve millions of patients.

This recognition brings vital funding, resources, and mentorship to propel our AI solution toward inclusion and economic empowerment. The road ahead is promising, and we’re ready to scale impact together.

"Despite the stakes, physicians vote at rates nearly 20% lower than the general population, which is concerning given our unique role in influencing health policy."

Grateful to @Forbes for highlighting the importance of civic health on the precipice of this critical election night.

What I'm most proud of is the impact our team at @Vot_ER_org has made in the 2024 election cycle so far. With time still left on the clock, our team has helped over 168,000 clinicians, patients, and their families make their voices heard through voter registration, mail-in ballots, and other readiness actions.

But its more than the impact in numbers. Amid declining trust and disillusionment, one thing remains clear: healthcare professionals have the opportunity to embrace their role not only as healers but as champions of civic engagement. We don't merely treat symptoms; we combat the roots of inequity through active participation and unwavering advocacy by helping our patients vote. And Vot-ER is doing its small part helping to change the culture of medicine so it can embrace this opportunity.

This is the heart of creating A Healthier Democracy @ahdemocracy.
