LINEA Health Strategies Consulting LLC — Public Health Consulting

Le'Jon Godwin-Chumley, MPH, HTL(ASCP) — Founder & Principal. An independent public health consultancy for nonprofits, agencies, and health systems. LINEA conducts needs assessments, capacity reviews, health equity evaluations, and GIS analysis to close access gaps in maternal and child health.

Three Problems We Solve

Where is the need highest and what does the data actually show? County-level GIS analysis and equity mapping reveal where access breaks down and which communities to prioritize.
Is the program working and can you prove it? Rigorous evaluation design and outcomes research that survives funder review and peer scrutiny.
How does program data become evidence? Scientific writing, grant evidence packages, and citation-ready summaries that translate findings into fundable, publishable work.

Signature Research — Donor Human Milk Equity, Alabama

A 14-county GIS analysis mapping geographic disparities in access to pasteurized donor human milk (PDHM) in Alabama. NICU infrastructure distribution strongly predicts donor milk dispensation (r = 0.96, R² = 0.92). The four highest-Medicaid counties account for 67% of live births but receive only 23% of donor milk. Black Belt counties show the sharpest inverse relationship between need and access. Submitted as two APHA 2026 abstracts and manuscript to the Maternal and Child Health Journal.
