Most of Fields Allsbrook career thus far has centered in Washington, D.C. She’s worked in positions in communications, health law and policy. In 2007, she was the Emerging Leaders Intern at the Congressional Black Caucus. In 2016, she was a Senior Policy Analyst for Planned Parenthood Federation of American, the Director of Women’s Health and Rights at the Center for American Progress in 2019, and, most recently, the Senior Policy Advisor in the Office of Population Affairs for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Returning to SLU LAW is an exciting move for Fields Allsbrook. With experience as a clinical fellow for Harvard Law School and an adjunct professor at the University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law, Fields Allsbrook comes with both worldly and scholarly knowledge to share. “Something I hope to contribute to SLU LAW is my career in D.C. in health equity and policy. I hope to have my experiences to reflect my teaching, I’ll be teaching out of the book but also be able to partner it with my real-life experiences. I’m excited to be able to bring in a broad network for my students.â€
