Felicia Morrison

My work involves advancing health equity and system improvement through community-driven initiatives, and I have been doing this work for several years as a registered nurse, Senior Improvement Advisor, and Six Sigma Green Belt. As the founder of the Friends with Benefits Coalition, I leverage collective impact strategies to address gaps in care, particularly for underserved and marginalized populations. I am especially interested in community-academic partnerships that center lived experience, improve access to services, and support initiatives like the Hold My Spot pilot, which is currently in progress to address real-time barriers in care coordination. In terms of past partnership experience, I have worked across healthcare systems, community organizations, and cross-sector teams to design and implement sustainable, data-driven improvements. The ideal partner for me and my organization is one that values equity, co-creation, and measurable impact; as a partner, you can expect strategic leadership, implementation expertise, and a deep commitment to community voice and outcomes.
