Meet Dr. Nadine Burke Harris, California’s first-ever Surgeon General.

According to NBC News, Newsom said in a news release that Harris “will focus on combating the root causes of serious health conditions and use her office to reach young families across the state.”

After graduating from the University of California, Berkeley in 1996, Harris went on to earn her medical degree from the University of California Davis School of Medicine. Afterwards, She then obtained a Master’s in Public Health from Harvard University and finished her residency in pediatrics at Stanford University.

In her new role, Dr. Harris will remain dedicated to her work of helping underserved communities and improving the health of children who are exposed to traumatic experiences.

This is Black Girl Magic!

  1. I do not know if it’s just me or if everybody else experiencing issues with your website.
    It appears as though some of the written text
    on your content are running off the screen. Can someone else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them as well?
    This may be a issue with my browser because I’ve had
    this happen previously. Many thanks

  2. Today, I went to the beach front with my children. I found
    a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed.
    There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.

    She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!
