Welcome to our newest Steering Committee member, Elaine Rosenburg!

Elaine brings a lot of experience to the Committee. She was the Executive Director of the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, New England Chapter from 2004-2012; the  Executive Director of Family Service of Norfolk County from 1994-2003, and prior to that she was the Coordinator of Special Needs Services at the Jewish Community Centers of Greater Boston and held multiple positions at Harvard Community Health Care (now Harvard Pilgrim).

In addition, she has been a board member of Southwest Affordable Housing Partnership, 1994-2005 and Community Health Charities of New England, 2004-2009.
