Improving Access to Healthcare For Those in Supportive Housing.
In 2022, I began working as an independent graphic designer with the Corporation for Supportive Housing (CSH). My role supported an initiative funded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). The project’s goal was clear and powerful: improve healthcare access for people living in supportive housing.
Over two terms—2022–2023 and 2023–2024—I collaborated closely with CSH’s Federal Technical Assistance (TA) and Communications teams. Together, we designed clear, engaging, and accessible publications including reports, guides, toolkits, and more, tailored for both print and digital use.
