Community Health Outreach
Community Health Outreach (CHO) is a student-organized and directed
elective class for first and second year medical students who want to
learn about the issues faced by medically underserved populations in the
community. First-year students have the opportunity to learn about
community service organizations that provide care and resources to
underserved populations. Second-year students apply their knowledge from
the first-year to a self-directed service project with an underserved
population of their choosing. The overall goal of the CHO course is to
expose students to specific concerns faced by various populations that
can affect a person's overall state of health. Students will gain the
knowledge necessary to become competent, compassionate clinicians for
individuals from all populations.
