OUR STAFF

AHP staff members have an unusual combination of content expertise and hands-on experience, giving them an in-depth understanding of the issues faced by clients.  Many have extensive, high-level operational experience in both the public and private sectors, senior positions with a variety of Federal and State agencies focusing on behavioral health, as well as academic institutions and national associations.  Many also have years of personal experience “in the trenches” working as service providers and counselors providing health and human services directly to those who need help the most.
