Dignity Health - St. Joseph's Medical Center - Community Health

Program Information

Students will be doing research on programs and helping on some that are already up and running to address health disparities in the community. Goals are based on a community needs assessment and students will have some latitude to take initiative and have leadership roles within programs. In 2019 the priorities are mental health, economic security, obesity/diabetes, violence/injury prevention, access to care, and substance use.
