In 2011, Sarah Broome founded and ran one of Louisiana's most innovative schools - a residential program for high needs students. In the following years, she focused on growing the schools wrap around supports - specifically mental health supports. Through that process, she learned to use the complex school-based Medicaid program to provide sustainable funding for these services. Now, working with Inseparable, she spends her time helping states and schools use Medicaid to effectively fund school support services.
