📢 Come lead the Office of Environmental Justice at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (GS-15): https://lnkd.in/eJ2dHnyS. Please share widely! *Apply by 8/23* "The Director of the Office of Environmental Justice will provide strategic leadership, serve as principal advisor to the Assistant Secretary for Health, and collaborate with key policy leaders to protect the health of people throughout the U.S. in the face of pollution and other environmental hazards, especially those experiencing a higher share of exposures and impacts." This office was first launched at HHS in May 2022 and has been guided by the incredible expertise and leadership of Sharunda Buchanan, M.S., Ph.D. as interim director (She's also the Director of CDC/ATSDR's Office of Priority Projects, Innovation and Environmental Justice!) Along with Dr. Buchanan on your team, the Director will work with Dr. John Balbus , Office of Climate Change and Health Equity Director -- across OASH, HHS, and in partnership with communities and Tribes -- to advance environmental justice and health equity. Much thanks to Arsenio Y. Mataka for vision on launching this office early on. Grateful for support from Secretary Becerra, Admiral Levine, and across the Biden-Harris administration to pursue this important work. #EnvironmentalJustice #Publichealth #HealthEquity #Equity #YourPassionOurPurpose
