Welcome Message from Incoming HHA Co-Presidents
Greetings from your new HHA co-presidents! We're so thrilled to work together with our board, and all of you, to make the Haas Healthcare Association stronger than ever. Our goals this year are to provide you with academic, social, and career programming & resources that encompass a wide range of healthcare subject matter and functional areas. In addition, we're excited to enhance cross-Berkeley collaboration and knowledge-sharing in the healthcare space by extending beyond Haas and making HHA accessible to students within other graduate programs at Berkeley. We hope to highlight the best of Berkeley's compassionate, innovative, and equity-minded perspectives on the ever-changing, complex industry of healthcare, and we're truly grateful to be in community with all of you!
