Northwell Health launched its Community Scholars program to help underserved youth from Suffolk and Nassau counties on Long Island, NY, attend community college.

We’ve partnered with Connected Health Solutions over the past 2 years on their film productions with Northwell Health. The youths developed, wrote, and directed social marketing campaigns on issues they face,  many of their themes relating to being first-generation Americans striving to be perfect in the eyes of parents who had sacrificed so much to come to this country.

It was a privilege to collaborate with these students and watch them grow into powerful storytellers. You can check out the film campaigns and “behind the scenes” documentaries on their Instagram.
