"We are thrilled to have been recognized for our work to advance health equity by CZI," said Burgess Harrison, NMHA Executive Director. "Funding by philanthropic organizations and others of CZI's stature speaks volumes about the impact of our work, and we are humbled and thankful," continued Harrison.
