The Alliance for Health Equity has welcomed Nicholas Torres as its first Chief Operating Officer

Torres has more than 25 years of experience in executive management, having worked at the intersection of the private, government, and nonprofit sectors to align them toward social impact and public policy change.

Torres has founded and led multiple for-profit and not-for-profit social ventures that are driven both by social impact and financial sustainability measures. Some of his ventures include charter schools, an early literacy technology platform, school-based health centers, and community-based satellite college sites.

Torres provides governance and fiduciary support to The Network: Towards Unity for Health (TUFH), a global network of individuals, institutions, and organizations committed to equitable health.

Torres previously worked with The Alliance for Health Equity as its Collective Impact Strategic Advisor and helped shape one of its strategic priorities, Integrated Services. As The Alliance’s new COO, he will be responsible for driving significant social impact by co-designing and strategically deploying the operational infrastructure required to support the organization as it continues to chart a path forward in the changing landscape of philanthropy.

Serving as a thought partner with the CEO, Torres will be responsible for facilitating change and growth across The Alliance’s continuum of investing, fundraising, and implementation of strategic priorities.

“At this juncture in my career, having the opportunity to advance the mission of The Alliance for Health Equity allows me to lead with my passion, and that is to create transformative models that lift up communities (that are) economically and socially disadvantaged,” said Torres.
