Meet the new Vice President

Greenberg promoted to vice president of Government Relations
Josh Greenberg has been promoted to vice president of Government Relations for Children's Hospital Boston. As the hospital accelerates its efforts to build a local and national reputation for delivering cost effective, innovative care, particularly on Beacon Hill and in Washington, the role of Government Relations has become increasingly important. Greenberg has been tasked with leading Children's response to the constantly evolving external environment of health reform and cost containment, as well as continuing to set the hospital's public policy and legislative advocacy agenda that is central to our ability to provide the best care to children in need.Greenberg has been with Children's for eight years, most recently serving as director of Government Relations. In that role, he's led hospital efforts and provided strategy for city, state and federal fiscal and public policy issues, including helping to advance the hospital's agenda on Medicaid/CHIP, pediatric quality, child/public health concerns, research and medical education.Prior to joining Children's, Greenberg served as manager of the Children's Division at Health Care For All, where he was the Massachusetts director for the national Covering Kids Program. His dedication to child advocacy has led him to involvement in numerous projects on health quality, teen health and mental health, including the founding of an innovative legal aid program, now known as the Medical-Legal Partnership, at Boston City Hospital's Department of Pediatrics. Greenberg is a graduate of Dartmouth College and Northeastern University's School of Law.

Congratulations Josh! The formatting isn't great but I wanted to include the pic with his wife Kate since we haven't had much news from Josh. Spread the word to '83 (only about a third of us subscribed to the blog) that this is the place to keep up with DA '83!

Morley

David Morley was on campus today with a daughter who is on the Bahamian National Swim Team (shocker...not)!

Sully

That's Lowery Sullivan '85 and his son in my office. Lowery was the third of the four Sullivan brothers at DA in the 80s. They could all fall downhill with great speed!
