Partnerships Developed

  • "In my former role as President and CEO of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, I had the opportunity to work with many organizations as we pursued our major priority of ensuring every child lives at a healthy weight. The Partnership for a Healthier America was a critical partner because of the impactful commitments PHA negotiated with corporate America. As PHA's first President, Larry had a difficult job, but his outstanding leadership set the standards and accelerated progress toward measurable milestones on the journey to better health for all of America's children"

    Risa Lavizzo-Mourey, M.D., M.B.A. - President Emerita, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation

  • "As our first CEO, Larry took Partnership for a Healthier America from a startup concept to a game-changing first-in-it's-class organization. The PHA Board had high expectations and grand hopes when we hired Larry and his performance exceeded the mark! Larry has been a winner for us."

    James. R. Gavin III, MD, PhD - Board Chair, Partnership for a Healthier America

  • "I've worked with many senior executives and what impressed me most about Larry was his ability to get things done. Larry had a knack of taking on objectives that were extremely difficult, effectively assembling his resources, and executing to successfully achieve our preferred outcome."
