Adam - I too am a founding partner/BOD member of a start-up non-profit based in DC, working remotely in my home office in Dallas. The mission of our non-profit, Health Equity and Access Technologies Group, or H.E.A.T., is to pursue patient-centric healthcare reform and health transformation by the amelioration of health disparities in underserved populations. These goals will be accomplished through mechanisms that emphasize the culturally sensitive dissemination of evidence based strategies to improve clinical outcomes,
reduce barriers to the access of health care, and address the systemic biases impacting vulnerable populations, i.e. clinical trials, clinician training, continuing medical education, etc. Would love to share experiences/connections/suggestions regarding the start-up process.

Hi there - I'm working long-distance for a start-up non-profit called The Financial Stability Project, based in DC (I live in Oregon). Would love to connect with others working in the area or in the same field (FSP works on financial literacy, foreclosure prevention, etc).
