Collaborative Groups Established
Sosa founded the Virginia Organization for Inclusive Concepts and
Equitable Solutions (VOICES) and the Hampton Roads Health Equity
Collaborative to unite health systems, businesses, academic
institutions, nonprofits, and local governments in addressing social
determinants of health and systemic barriers to quality care. VOICES’
collaborative success led the Virginia Center for Inclusive Communities
(VCIC) to adopt it as one of its programs. The Hampton Roads Health
Equity Collaborative is now chaired by Dr. Cynthia Romero, former
Virginia Health Commissioner and Director of the Brock Institute at ODU, and Phyllis Stoneburner, Executive Director of Healthy Chesapeake.
