Melissa Buckley, PhD, MSW, LMSW – At Large Board Member
Hello! I am Dr. Melissa Buckley an Assistant Professor at Coppin State University in the Department of Social Work. I am excited to be a new member of the Maryland Public Health Association Board.
I live in Baltimore and am proud to call Charm City my home. I am originally from Toronto, Canada and my parents are Jamaican…if you happen to drive by my house, you’ll see a huge Jamaican flag out front! As an immigrant, I feel that I bring a unique perspective to social work and public health conversations.
In addition to being a social work educator, I am a therapist, community activist and fitness trainer. Fitness, old TV sitcoms and face-time with my loved ones are my favorite forms of self-care.
