Roxanne
Mitchell
Community Health Worker
Hi! I'm Roxanne, a community health worker with a Bachelor's in Political Science and Public Health, a Master's in Public Health, and a certificate in Health Disparities. My passion lies in human development and women's mental health, recognizing the unique challenges and stigma women face in seeking care. Professionally, I’ve gained diverse experience, from supporting ICU operations at Albany Medical Center to case management at a family shelter, helping families access essential resources. My work is driven by the strong community that has shaped me, and I strive to be a source of encouragement and support for others, meeting them with empathy and dedication. Outside of work, I cherish time with loved ones, bring humor to everyday life (often quoting The Office), and stay connected to my Jamaican roots through travel. Everything I do is done with love.
