Brittany Jones-Cobb (she/her) is a licensed clinical social worker and social gerontologist. Brittany's research centers on advancing health equity for marginalized older adults living with chronic conditions and disabilities—particularly those without the support of a familial or chosen care network. Her work is rooted in a deep commitment to improving outcomes for populations disproportionately isolated, often by intersecting systems of oppression related to disability, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and gender identity. She has a Ph.D. in Social Welfare from the University of Washington's School of Social Work, where she also earned a Graduate Certificate in Demographic Methods.
