Dr Muhammed is a pioneer in what he would have been called, but he is known to many as a very modest and humble man who would sacrifice the world for the future of the children. He is the Founder and Executive Director of CHW Workforce Development, an organization seeking to empower community health workers through state legislation and community activism.
Dr Muhammed served as the first Black Community Health Worker for Brigham and Women's Hospital iCMP program in the emergency department. He was passionate about connecting individuals experiencing perpetual poverty, who are also high users of hospital and clinical services, with culturally sensitive community health workers to increase utilization of primary care and reduce unnecessary utilization of emergency services.
Dr. Muhammed is committed to progressive and philanthropic ideals to support low-income families and socially disadvantaged communities. He has dedicated over 27 years to developing entrepreneurial training initiatives, focusing on mental health awareness, substance & opiate abuse prevention, and childhood obesity prevention initiatives. He's published at the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NIH) for his obesity research.
