In recognition of Autism Acceptance Month, Northwell’s N-Able BERG members (Business Employee Resource Groups) are working to host and spread awareness about a number of programs, courses and events being offered across the health system from ally ship and neurodiversity in the workplace, to working parent community support group sessions that provide a safe place for learning, healing and wellness.
“We wanted to take an opportunity during Autism Acceptance Month to spread awareness and support for our Northwell team members with autism, as well our team members with loved ones who have autism and understanding our community,” says Ines Vanboom, assistant vice president, Workforce Readiness and co-chair of the N-Able BERG. “This month not only allows our team members to educate themselves on this complex neurological disorder, but also provides more opportunities to connect with each other across the organization.”
The N-Able BERG was formed to advocate, educate and support a diverse workforce, while providing a safe environment for individuals with disabilities and for our team members with disabilities, so they can thrive within the organization. “The N-Able BERG has helped me gain a greater understanding, compassion and appreciation for individuals with a disability and in particular individuals who are neurodiverse. I had to step out of my comfort zone and be part of discussions where I am not a subject matter expert but that experience and learning about the community makes me a more well-rounded individual and ultimately a better Northwell team member.”

Meet Jennifer Megale, director of advanced clinical providers (ACP) at North Shore University Hospital. Jennifer’s dedication to leadership development and training has led to her successful career at Northwell Health.
Jennifer began her journey at Northwell during her clinical rotations as a Physician Assistant (PA) while attending school at Touro College from 2008-2010. That is the first time she felt a sense of community unlike anywhere else she’d ever been. “Northwell has always felt like a close-knit family. Leaders make themselves readily available because they truly want the best for their employees and our patients,” says Jennifer.
In 2011, Jennifer took a position as a general surgery ACP at North Shore University Hospital. While in this role, she participated in Northwell’s leadership development programs to continue her passion for learning over the next eight years. This led her to a promotion to ACP supervisor for the department of surgery at North Shore University Hospital in 2018. “Northwell’s leadership essentials courses and numerous mentorship programs have really helped me develop my skills and network with other leaders in the health system.”
Today, in her current role as ACP director at North Shore University Hospital, Jennifer oversees ACPs in the departments of general surgery, surgical intensive care, obstetrics and gynecology, orthopedics, otolaryngology, peripheral and neurological interventional radiology, liver and kidney transplant, urology, and pre-surgical testing. A large portion of Jennifer’s role is spent developing future leaders and mentoring supervisors. A typical day for Jennifer involves multiple one-on-one meetings with supervisors to discuss ongoing issues, finding solutions, and working on refining their leadership skills. “Developing leaders is truly so important in employee engagement which directly correlates to the patient experience,” says Jennifer.
When asked what she loves most about her job at Northwell, Jennifer shared, “The most rewarding thing for me is to be able to take all the skills I have learned from various mentors and leadership development programs and channel them into developing future ACPs. Helping others see what they are capable of, while also focusing on employee engagement, and in turn patient satisfaction, brings me so much joy.”
At Northwell, we strive to give our team members as many opportunities as we can to help them continue their career growth journey.

We spoke with Caitlynn C. Dufort, career and performance development program manager, and Christian Jocelyn, vice president of digital enterprise operations, co-chairs of the African American and Caribbean Bridges BERG (Business Employee Resource Group). Read below as they reflect on the importance of Black History Month, what this year’s theme of black resistance means for them, and the impact our Bridges BERG has made on their career journey at Northwell.
Caitlynn Dufort (CD): I started my career at Northwell as a human resource talent acquisition team member where I focused on internal career mobility and supported our recruitment project strategies. I later pursued a graduate degree in public health and worked in program management before I transitioned to the career and performance development team. In my current role, I have an opportunity to collaborate with our different partners on projects and programs that support team member development.
Christian Jocelyn (CJ): I started my career at Northwell as a paramedic. After being promoted to paramedic supervisor, I obtained my master’s degree in healthcare administration and embarked on my administrative journey, starting as a manager for finance and operations and working my way to vice president of enterprise digital operations. As the vice president, I now oversee the development, integration and administration of operations for the health system’s Digital Centers of Excellence.
CD: I think about the month’s origin and the importance of highlighting our ancestors’ contributions. It is important for everyone to be educated on the impact of African Americans on society healthcare. There are many contributions that African Americans have made throughout history that are not widely known.
CJ: I reflect on all there is to learn from the past and am reminded that black history is a shared history. It highlights our unfinished work and struggles that are described in the history textbooks that we still find ourselves grappling with. We have to overcome the challenges of the present to build a better future. We have black history as the blueprint.
CD: The 2023 theme for the month is black resistance. The theme of black resistance focuses on the acknowledgement and history of black Americans’ responses to establish safe spaces, where Black life can be sustained, fortified, and respected, and how also black resistance strategies have served as a model for social movements in our country. Change has not been easy, and resisting the status quo to create safer spaces, laws, and equitable rights was needed and should be celebrated. Therefore, our BERGs wanted to celebrate black excellence and the individuals who have made history as they created change and rose to the occasion even if it meant being resistant.
CJ: Black resistance is a significant thread in the fabric that is American life. The ultimate story of black resistance is the Civil Rights Movement. This social movement ensured that African Americans and other minorities had the basic rights given to them under the constitution protected. We still fight inequality every day, but black resistance has helped us see that we do have the power to overcome even the most insurmountable odds and gives hope for a continued pursuit of a more equal and just society.
CD: Through collaboration with other team members and the opportunities to grow my network, I have benefited from my experience as a BERG member. My experience inspired me to take advantage of opportunities and to continue the legacy that the co-chairs of the BERGs have established.
CJ: I have been introduced to team members from all over the organization who have made a positive impact on my career. I hope to give back to the BERG a fraction of what it has given me and look forward to future opportunities.
CD: In an organization as large as Northwell, the BERGs create an opportunity to connect with all team members across different levels of their career and from different corners of the organization with similar experiences and cultures to network and give back.
CJ: BERGS are key for fostering connection and authenticity and allow team members to bring their full selves into work. They create an environment of trust where ideas can be shared and can lead to better patient care outcomes from creative solutions.
