Kaiser Permanente is a Hall of Fame company.
Kaiser Permanente in Hawaii has recently honored two employees as recipients of the 2022 national David Lawrence Community Service Award. The award recognizes Scott Denny, certified physician assistant and Susan May, Doctor of Audiology for their outstanding volunteer activities that help improve community health and wellness.
Denny is the medical director, HIV and PrEP Services, at the Gender Health Services Care Pathway Center. He collaborated with the Nuuanu YMCA to establish Rainbow Connections, a program that helps the transgender and gender diverse youth community share experiences and access support. He also regularly educates the community on LGBTQ+-related health care.
May is a supervising audiologist at Moanalua Medical Center. She has volunteered with the Special Olympics Healthy Athletes Summer Games for 20 years. She has been the organization’s co-director of healthy hearing for the past 14 years, helping provide hearing screenings for Special Olympics athletes.
To celebrate the accomplishments of these employees, Kaiser Permanente will donate $10,000 each to Hawaii Health and Harm Reduction Center and Kokua Kalihi Valley Roots Project.
