Tomia Austin, DrPH, a behavioral scientist, health educator and researcher is also the Executive Director of the As One Foundation that was established with a mission to help empower youth to unlock & unleash their full potential through athletics, education and spiritual enrichment. Since the foundation was also established to honor the memory of the founder’s late brother who died of dehydration complicated by sickle cell trait, Tomia authored a program – Operation Hydration - to bring awareness to sickle cell trait and promote hydration as prevention of it’s adverse effects such as exertional sickling. Under Dr. Austin’s leadership the new mission of the foundation became to educate and increase awareness of sickle cell trait while encouraging youth to achieve their dreams in the face of life’s challenges.
