MCN Board of Directors

Migrant Clinicians Network is overseen by a Board of Directors. Our Board Members are frontline clinicians and outreach workers, researchers, policy makers, and academics with expertise in migrant and underserved population health. To qualify for a MCN Board appointment, individuals are required to have either served a minimum of one year in a clinical capacity with a migrant population or provided professional care to migrants or other mobile poor on a routine basis or demonstrated knowledge of migration health issues through volunteer, philanthropic or professional experience. The Executive Committee of our Board meets virtually on a monthly basis and the entire board meets biannually in person, including for MCN’s annual staff meeting, where the Board interacts with MCN’s entire staff during strategic planning and program review.
