#### About Sherrie Williams, LCSW        

Sherrie Williams is the Chief of Operations of the Georgia-based, Global Partnership for Telehealth (GPT).  As a non-profit, GPT is known as one of the lowest cost, highest quality, and most experienced telehealth networks in the country.

She was instrumental in developing and implementing the very first school-based telehealth program in Georgia. The model she created is still being used today across 100’s of school programs. After experiencing the true value of telehealth, Sherrie soon left the social work profession to pursue a career in telehealth full-time. She began working with GPT in 2012.
