At Generation Patient, we aim to strengthen the advocacy skills of our fellow young adult patients while also ensuring that our perspectives are represented within health policy. We do this through our three key policy areas and the Health Policy Scholars program.
Our Health Policy Scholars Program combines peer support with educational and advocacy opportunities for young adults living with chronic and rare medical conditions. Our scholars bring a vital viewpoint to the health policy arena, united by their lived experiences and a keen interest in actively engaging with health policy matters, particularly those related to lowering healthcare costs and the prices of prescription medicines.
In 2023, we launched our first class of Health Policy Scholars. We're excited to announce the following young adult patients who will comprise our second cohort of scholars for 2024:
Giovanna Burno
Casey Doherty
Adam Koch
Peyton Miles
Rachel Litchman
Genna Goist
