This uses the Divi tabs module, so you can style it however you want using Divi’s built in design controls! Pretty nifty eh? 
And of course you can add images or whatever you want here too. Tabs are nothing new, but tabs that display inside your mega menu are pretty awesome 🙂
#GOCCNJ is pleased to announce the launch of Your CarePlan™ with Penn Medicine Princeton Health.

David LaMotte has retired as a #GOCCNJ board member after serving from the early years of the organization until June 2021. He devoted himself to improving end-of-life care for individual families through hospice, at the community level through his service at Penn Medicine Princeton Health, and systemically with #GOCCNJ. As a teacher and a caregiver, the common thread in his work is a belief in the power of listening.![]()
