Hunter College has named urban healthcare leader Dr. Maya Clark-Cutaia as the inaugural Evelyn Lauder Associate Dean for Nurse Practitioner Programs, Hunter Nursing School Dean Ann Marie Mauro announced.
The Lauder Associate Dean will oversee the new Evelyn Lauder Community Care Nurse Practitioner Program, which launched in August and now encompasses 33 fellows who are specializing in Adult/Gerontology or Psychiatric/Mental Health.
The program — a partnership with New York Health + Hospitals, the nation’s largest municipal health system — will provide a pipeline of highly educated nurse practitioners to the city’s neediest communities, including homeless and mentally ill populations.
