As a core member of the Social Impact/Project HUDSON team, the Trauma Patient Navigator works collaboratively with hospital and community partners to address barriers to care, promote safety, and support individuals in achieving their goals.

• Providing peer support, advocacy, and community-based violence prevention and intervention services throughout Jersey City and Hudson County.
• Collaborating with JCMC programs, community organizations, and the Social Impact/Trauma team to coordinate services and strengthen community partnerships.
