Katherine Delapena, MA

Hi, I’m Kat, and I’m thrilled to serve as a Community Health Worker with the Epilepsy Foundation New England, supporting families in Boston Children’s Hospital’s resource room. Originally from sunny San Diego, California, I graduated with degrees in Public Health & Health Psychology.

This role resonated with me because of its holistic, compassionate approach to accessible healthcare. I’m eager for the chance to contribute to public health initiatives firsthand and deepen my understanding of neuropsychiatric disorders.I look forward to learning from this community and growing in my ability to provide empathetic, holistic care for individuals and families affected by epilepsy.
