The Philadelphia Community Engagement Alliance (CEAL), funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), is pleased to announce a new $5.5 million NIH grant focused on chronic disease self-management among Philadelphia residents. The project builds on a sustained strategic partnership between Penn Nursing, the Philly CEAL Community Advisory Coalition, and the City of Philadelphia’s Office of Community Empowerment and Opportunity (CEO).
Welcome to
At the start of this fall semester, I welcome you—not just to the hustle of a new semester, but to a renewed chance to be part of our vibrant Penn Nursing community. We talk a lot about what we want our culture to be at the School, and for me the thing that makes the biggest difference is being deliberate about connecting with people. We need to understand how connecting reinforces our community and our health—and wards off isolation that can lead to loneliness.
