David Litvack

Position: Patient and Public Partner

David Litvack is a public affairs consultant and policy analyst who has worked on several projects in the private and public sector. His public sector experience includes projects in both federal and provincial governments. Relevant to this proposal are the contracts that David performed for Health Canada and Manitoba Health. Before consulting, he worked as a Parliamentary staffer, primarily as a ministerial advisor/assistant. David took time away from his career to help with the care of his father. There were several provincial government programs that allowed the Litvacks to care for him at home rather than an institution. David’s interest in participating in this project is to determine if broader lessons learned can be extrapolated from the Litvack’s anecdotal experience. Mr. Litvack will participate in assessing and providing his perspective on the literature included in this review, review findings, discussion of findings, gaps in knowledge, and suggestions for knowledge translation.
