Many thanks to Dr. Eric Tam for joining the board of Community Health Alliance of Pasadena (ChapCare). ChapCare’s mission is to provide excellent, comprehensive, and innovative healthcare that is accessible to residents of the San Gabriel Valley, no easy task during a long global pandemic!

But ChapCare has persevered, offering Covid testing and vaccinations, in addition to their regular medical, dental, vision and behavioral health services. They are always looking for great board members and JRP has recently matched Dr. Eric Tam with them. Dr. Tam moved to the Pasadena area a couple of years ago to teach at the Keck School of Medicine at USC and wanted to connect to his new community. He attended JRP’s Effective Board workshops and was ready to find a board. ChapCare was a perfect fit for him to adapt his medical expertise to an organization that has a profound effect on the health of the Pasadena community.

Thank you to Dr. Tam for serving on ChapCare’s board and to ChapCare for keeping low-income residents healthy!
