Welcome to Elected Women Across America, a podcast featuring elected women with common goals to exchange legislative ideas and reach across the aisle. Hosted by the National Foundation for Women Legislators, this podcast provides a direct line to the leaders that the organization empowers.
In another installment of our Healthcare series, you’ll hear from Georgia State Representative Kim Schofield. Representative Schofield has tirelessly worked to ensure that her constituents have access to quality healthcare, in 2019 introducing legislation that would create a grant program to encourage certain physicians to practice in underserved areas of her home state. Representative Schofield discusses how her own health struggles have informed her approach to health policy, and emphasizes the importance of health access for all ages.
We'll bring you new stories from elected women each episode with host Brenna Kehew Sculley. Share your stories with Brenna at podcast@womenlegislators.org.
