Board of Directors
Nichele Hoskins lives in Savannah, Georgia and serves as Healthy Savannah’s Communication Manager for Covid/Flu. Under a CDC grant, her key duties are to build community health knowledge, and to increase access and understanding of Covid-18, the seasonal flu, and the vaccines that can help reduce the disproportionate burden they place on Black and Latiné communities in Chatham County.
A longtime health journalist, Hoskins earned an MA in Journalism from The University of Michigan and has worked as a senior editor at such national publications as Health and Heart & Soul magazines. Her journalism experience began at such daily newspapers as The Sacramento Bee, The Savannah Morning News, the Shreveport (La.) Journal and the Fort Worth (Texas) Star-Telegram.
Hoskins, who has long championed women’s health and racial health equity, is also a national spokeswoman for WomenHeart: The National Coalition for Women with Heart Disease. She also serves on the board of the Forsyth Farmer’s Market and is a member of the Links Inc., Savannah (Ga.) Chapter.
“I look forward to joining the board of NWHN in its important work informing, supporting, and advocating for women and women’s health,” says Hoskins.
