“When Kolbi Brown joined All of Us at NYC Health + Hospitals Harlem in 2017, he wasn’t just starting a new job. He was changing careers. Kolbi had worked in real estate and property management for about 10 years, mostly in Harlem. He saw the issues that people around him were facing—including health problems. And he started to wonder what he could do to help the community where he lived and worked. “All of Us came along,” he says, “and gave me the opportunity to be a part of something that will be really meaningful.”
