🌿 Our founder’s story
Our founder’s commitment to NHA began in patient care. During his time as Clinical Administrator at TrueNorth Health Center, Nathanael regularly worked to make NHA’s Health Science magazine available in every patient room. He continues that commitment through the educational resources shared here.
🙋 He volunteered at a past NHA conference and fell in love with its mission.
