Bio

I’m the founder of The J Healthcare Initiative, a nonprofit transforming substance use healthcare through evidence-based policy work and substance use health focused projects. Drawing from my lived experience as a formerly precariously housed, first-generation immigrant, I lead through the wisdoms of my trauma.

My work has engaged 174,000 college students, generated over 9800 project hours in health promotion, and influencing policies impacting 7 million people.

I am a Novartis Reimagine Health scholar with proven track record of innovative groundwork in the field of substance use and youths mental health. I established Canada’s first women’s drug user health circle and bring evidence-based policy advocacy to the UN sessions.

Drug-Policy Implication Study

We are planning to implement a policy, however before we do we would like to understand the expected implications of it within this population. This way, we will be able to mitigate any risks that the policy may pose by making adjustments before it is implemented. This will involve several different steps for the students, including: Identifying similar policies that have been implemented in other populations. Comparing our policy to other policies and researching the implications that they have had. Conducting interviews with people in the populations affected by these similar policies. Identifying risks and effects that are created by our policy. Creating recommendations on how we could change or improve our policy to make it as effective as possible.
