Shelley Riser, Jumee Barooah Named Above & Beyond Honorees

Apr 6, 2026 | PACHC News

This year’s City & State Above & Beyond honorees are leaders in fields as varied as healthcare, business, law, education and construction. But they have something in common: mentorship, which virtually everyone on this list has mentioned as central to their success. As they shape Pennsylvania’s future across myriad sectors, these women are now mentors themselves, cultivating the next generation of leaders through professional and civic engagement. Congratulations to Shelley Riser, President and CEO, PACHC, PA Health Center Technology Alliance; and Jumee Barooah, Senior Vice President, Medical Education & Designated Institutional Official, The Wright Center for Graduate Medical Education for being Community Health Center leaders and mentors.
