HiTOPS Health Center Welcomes Kelli Hall


Kelli Stidham Hall, PhD, MSN, ANP-C joined HiTOPS in October 2010. Kelli, a Nurse Practitioner, came to the Princeton community this summer as a postdoctoral research fellow at Princeton University, where she is furthering her research in adolescent contraceptive behavior and outcomes.

She received her PhD from Columbia University and her Master's and Bachelor's degrees in Family Nursing from the University of Kentucky. Kelli has also served as a nurse educator, teaching Nurse Practitioner students both clinical and research content while at Columbia. As a clinician, Kelli has years of experience as a reproductive health and adolescent medicine nurse practitioner, working most recently in college health, family planning and gynecology practices in New York City. In addition to clinical expertise in contraceptive management, Kelli is specialized in treatment of eating disorders and interested in integrating mental health and primary care into family planning contexts.

Kelli believes HiTOPS public health approach to positive youth development designed by nurse practitioners is the perfect setting for her to deliver high quality, integrated and evidence-based health care to male and female adolescents and emerging adults.
