Since joining the VHA National Center for Healthcare Advancement and Partnerships in 2019, Mr. Moler has assisted in the development of national partnerships that enhance services to Veterans. Mr. Moler also works to determine if a proposed partnership will establish measurable goals and outcomes to aid in ongoing monitoring of the partnership.
Why is the work you do so important for Veterans and their families, caregivers, and survivors?
Non-monetary partnerships with mission-focused community organizations can expand access to services and resources from organizations in the community in which Veterans, their families, caregivers, and survivors live. Many of these organizations are Veteran-led or have deep roots in the populations they serve which can foster trust and help expand VA’s reach.
Since joining VHA National Center for Healthcare Advancement and Partnerships in 2016, Ms. Eickhoff has worked to explore partnership opportunities and health innovations that directly impact Veterans across the VA system. Ms. Eickhoff started her career in VA in 2011 in the War Related Illness and Injury Study Center and the Patient-Centered Care Integrative Health and Wellness Program at the Washington, DC VA Medical Center as both a research coordinator and in support of clinical services. Ms. Eickhoff received her master's degree in psychology from American University and is currently facilitating partnerships that support Veterans, military spouses, and other beneficiaries, across social determinants of health such as employment, economic stability, and health literacy.
