Amplify Nursing Season 10: Episode 03: Brooke Goodspeed

Today on Amplify Nursing we talk with Dr. Brooke Goodspeed, Founder and Executive Director of GETincluded & Research Scientist at Jefferson Health.  

In this episode Brooke shares how after her son’s down syndrome and autism diagnosis, she saw critical gaps in support and resources for families navigating disabilities. After pursuing a Ph.D. at the University of Pennsylvania, she co-founded GETincluded, a nonprofit promoting inclusion and employment for people with developmental disabilities. 

Her initiative, Get Café in Narberth, PA, is more than a coffee shop, it’s a community space employing people with disabilities. Brooke shares how she’s turning research into real-world change and why nurses are key to a more equitable future.
