A survivor’s fight for health care for young adults impacted by 9/11

On the day the two planes crashed into the World Trade Center in Manhattan, Lila Nordstrom, then a senior at Stuyvesant High School, was ordered to evacuate. Now a public health advocate and executive director of StuyHealth, which focuses on young adult survivors of 9/11, she is also the co-author of “Some Kids Left Behind: A Survivor’s Fight for Health Care in The Wake of 9/11.”
