Andrea Kumura is a licensed clinical social worker at Kaiser Permanente Integrated Behavioral Health Services in Hawai’i.
What inspired you to pursue a career in behavioral health?
I decided to go into social work and mental health because I love children and I want to help them.
How has being in NUHW helped you in your profession?
Being a member of NUHW has allowed me to speak up about the poor care my patients are getting and advocate for the proper care they are entitled to.
