Managing in Turbulent Times: Emerging Leaders in Public Health

Alumni

Robert I. Nakai

Director of the Division of Health and Human Services for the Ramah Navajo School Board, Inc.

 

 

As the director of health on the Ramah Navajo Community I am responsible for all Public Health issues, problems, initiatives, planning, direct health services, behavioral health services and mental health, social services, emergencies transports, and bio-terrorism.

I would like to learn from this program during this year is the opportunity to get information, demonstration, support of how we can improve our health services through better communication, the effect of legislation on health care and finances of health care services.

I am married with two sons; 22 and 17 years old. I oil-paint, write short stories, do genealogy, and read novels.
