DAY 1: LEADING BY EXAMPLE: HOFSTRA’S ROLE IN BUILDING A SUSTAINABLE TOMORROW DEPARTMENT OF POPULATION HEALTH and the
SALTZMAN COMMUNITY SERVICES CENTER present
SESSION 3: SUSTAINING COMMUNITY HEALTH, SERVICES AND RESEARCH This panel will provide a model of the actual and potential role of the University in providing otherwise unavailable services to local community members. The provision of low-cost innovative services by doctoral- and master’s-level trainees taps into the rich resources of the academic community and the need for students for the practical and clinical application of that knowledge. Public health justice concerns of local environmental contamination can be remediated through research and advocacy. The key to sustaining this mutually beneficial exchange is to broaden our scope and move into partnership with local organizations. This session will demonstrate how to collaborate with school systems, community-based organizations, social service agencies, and local churches to create and maintain sustainable relationships that mutually meet the needs of the University and the local community at large. Panelists: • Teresa Grella-Hillebrand, Director of Counseling and Mental Health Professions Clinic Saltzman Community Services Center • Sara Morrison, Senior Parent Advocate, Choice for All • Michele Marx, Director, Reading/Writing Learning Clinic Saltzman Community Services Center • Wendy Silverman, Clinic Director, Speech-Language-Hearing Clinic Saltzman Community Services Center Moderator: Dr. Martine Hackett, Associate Professor and Program Director Department of Population Health School of Health Professions and Human Services Hofstra University
