Our Mission
To empower patients from underserved communities to take charge of their health. To train a diverse group of future physicians to work closely with these communities. By mentoring these future leaders in medicine as they engage in preventive care, we promote workforce diversity and serve communities in need. |
Our MethodWe are a dedicated group of volunteer healthcare professionals who believe in improving health by empowering people and communities through health education and engagement.
We provide high quality education, tailoring our style to the audience. |

One-on-One
We transform down time in the waiting room to learning time. With the aid of a tablet loaded with presentations, we allow individuals to select the health area they’d like to learn about. Using a conversational format, we provide simple information relating behavior to disease prevention, ultimately crafting a goal for lifestyle change.

Small Groups
We teach lessons on four areas of health whose optimization is central to wellness. Using a discussion-based format, we allow participants to learn from one other, building support networks and strengthening each other on their journeys toward better health.

Community Events
By providing blood pressure screening services at community events, we reach the general population. With a simple, interactive presentation on blood pressure, individualized counseling, and easy-to-implement tips on preventing hypertension, we work to inspire preventive health behaviors at the population level.
