Closing the Women's Health Gap Through Policy
From Forbes:
Women’s health policy is having a breakthrough moment. Liz Powell, founder of Women’s Health Advocates (WHA), has built a coalition linking doctors, patients, and policymakers to close the gaps that have long undermined women’s health. With members in every state and several countries, WHA connects what happens in exam rooms to what gets debated in Congress.
From maternal mortality to endometriosis to drug dosing, women’s health has been underresearched and underfunded for decades. Powell and her team are changing that by pairing data with lived experience and pushing for policies that reflect women’s realities across their lifespans.
