Welcome Our New CTC-RI Program Coordinator!

Meet Mitchell Irving, MPH (he/him), CTC-RI's newest Program Coordinator. Mitchell will support an ongoing CTC-RI initiative related to advancing RI’s primary care workforce, including expanding clinical training site capacity, curriculum development, and provider engagement. He will also be supporting several CTC-RI committees, including the Clinical Strategy Committee and the Breakfast of Champions, as well as helping to launch a new training series on pediatric anxiety.

Mitchell earned a Bachelor’s in Anthropology from Central Connecticut State University and a Master of Public Health degree from the University of Connecticut, with a concentration in community-based research and international health. He has worked across academic, healthcare and community settings in the US and Canada, where he has coordinated multidisciplinary research projects and provided strategic support to clinical leaders. Areas of focus in his previous roles have ranged from physician well-being and virtual care evaluation to HIV stigma research and the history of healthcare institutions.

“I was thrilled to find such a unique opportunity at CTC-RI that blends my academic background in public health and my varied professional experiences in mixed-methods research, healthcare administration and clinician well-being. Over just my first few weeks here, it has been so exciting to learn about the range of projects and substantive impact that CTC-RI’s work has had in RI. It is an honor to join such a passionate and supportive team advancing primary care in the state that I now call home.”
