In Fall of 2021, I got the opportunity to intern for a nonprofit Public Health Organization called Vital Strategies. Vital Strategies is an organization dedicated to fully reimagining public health and working for a world where everyone is protected by equitable and effective public health systems.

Working closely with the in-House Design team, I was able to be fully in charge of a design project of my own - The Camden Coalition Maternal health Toolkit. This toolkit is for perinatal and other health care and supportive service providers working with pregnant and parenting people.

Overdose is among the top five non-pregnancy causes of maternal mortality. With sensitive subjects in mind, I designed a bright and easy-to-read interactive toolkit that could serve as a guide for health care workers to support the implementation of best practices for working with pregnant and parenting people who use drugs.

The toolkit includes sample forms, templates, worksheets, and assessments for adaptation and use in different health care settings.
