She is also Lecturer in Social Medicine at Harvard University and a member of the Executive Committee of the Aspen Institute's Roundtable on Community Change. She has woven many strands of experience with social policy, community building, education, and human service programs together to become a national authority on “what works” to improve the future of disadvantaged children and their families and neighborhoods. She has held leadership positions in many of the major national efforts on behalf of children and youth, including the National Center for Children in Poverty, City Year, the National Academy of Science's Board on Children and Families, the ECS National Commission on Governing America’s Schools, and the Foundation for Child Development. From 1965 to 1967 she headed the health division of the OEO’s Community Action Program, when the original Neighborhood Health Centers were developed and funded.
