Lisa Lee, DrPH, PRSS-S, CPRSS
My name is Lisa Lee and I have worked in the health care field since 2004 in a variety of positions ranging from bodywork, medical billing, HIV and hepatitis C testing and counseling, case management, housing programs (HOPWA and Ryan White Part B), outreach, assertive community treatment (ACT) case management for people experiencing homelessness, psychiatric case management, drug and alcohol counseling, program development and evaluation, grant writing and management, and I am a certified peer recovery support specialist. I completed my Master of Arts in Anthropology (with a focus on medical anthropology) at the University of Nevada, Reno. My graduate research focused on how harm reduction as a counter discourse helped to frame and maintain the radically inclusive social space of a local syringe services program for people marginalized and excluded elsewhere. I also hold a doctorate in public health. I have been in recovery from heroin addiction and homelessness since February 2002 and am a former methadone patient and consumer of harm reduction services. I am passionate about peer recovery, overdose prevention, harm reduction, and helping others achieve their full potential of living a purposeful life.
I live in Reno, Nevada with my partner and two children. In my free time, I enjoy traveling, volunteering, reading, camping, hiking, playing music, performance art, activism, writing, and being a wife and mom.
