Title
Project HEALTH - Helping Empower, Advocate & Lead Through Health [www.projecthealth.org]
Description
"One of the cool things about the impact of Project HEALTH is that it has attracted people with such different interests that you're not only going to have an army of doctors with this vision, you're also going to have people in law, people in the non-profit world, people working on policy, people in business. There are going to be people dispersed in so many different sectors who have gone through a similar experience and have similar ideals and goals. I think that is remarkable."
Project HEALTH works to break the link between poverty and poor health by mobilizing college students to provide sustained public health interventions in partnership with urban medical centers, universities, and community organizations.
Our clinic-based help desks use the doctor’s office as a point of intervention to connect families with critical resources, such as food, housing, and childcare.
