The Filipina Women’s Network (FWN) has named Joyce Javier, MD, MPH, MS, one of the world’s 100 Most Influential Filipina Women. The annual Global FWN100™ award celebrates Filipinas across the professional and civic spectrum who have demonstrated outstanding leadership and achievement globally and locally.
As assistant professor of clinical pediatrics at Keck and CHLA, Joyce is reversing a long tradition of stigma about mental health issues to help Filipino families and children avoid serious problems and, instead, to thrive.
