Community Based Work By Students
Sustainable healthcare is fundamentally rooted in community medicine education. The service-learning course is a unique opportunity for our students to go beyond the health care delivery systems and immerse themselves in the local community. Through a community-based curriculum that focuses on dissecting the structural and social determinants of health, our students and faculty collaborate with their community partners to become systems change agents together and help address health disparities. Their deep engagement at these facilities has hopefully equipped them with skills necessary to be more well-rounded medical students.
