Overview
Elizabeth Sloand has been dedicated to improving the lives of children in vulnerable circumstances throughout her career. Her work as a nurse educator, scholar, and health care provider focuses on uninsured and underinsured children and youth in Baltimore, Haiti, and internationally.

In recognition of her work in Haiti and domestically, she received the 2017 Audrey Hepburn Award for Contributions to Health and Welfare of Children by Sigma Theta Tau International. Closer to home, Dr. Sloand practices as a certified pediatric nurse practitioner, providing direct primary care services to uninsured/underinsured children and their families.
