History

EMBRACE was originally conceived and developed by a group of healthcare professionals who were tired of working in a broken healthcare system that seemed to be run by politicians and insurance companies rather than by doctors and public health experts. They called themselves Healthcare Professionals for Healthcare Reform (HPfHR).
