About Matter Health
Matter Health delivers primary and preventive healthcare directly to older adults living in public housing communities. Our mission is simple: to improve healthcare access by meeting patients where they are, building trusted relationships within the communities we serve. We are rapidly expanding across Massachusetts and seeking mission-driven professionals who thrive in fast-paced, people-centered environments.
We Lead with Love in Everything We Do.
About the RoleThe Patient Advocate & Liaison (PAL) is the face of Matter Health within the communities we serve. This field-based role is responsible for building trusted relationships with older adults living in affordable housing communities and helping them stay engaged in their healthcare journey.
Working alongside an Nurse Practitioner (NP), you'll serve as the primary relationship-builder for your assigned communities—educating patients about Matter Health, supporting enrollment, coordinating follow-up, identifying barriers to care, and helping patients stay connected to the services they need.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working directly with people, thrives in community settings, and is passionate about improving healthcare access for underserved populations.

Strong organization and time management skills
Ability to collaborate with clinical and operational teams
