Join NLVS to lead efforts in local/global healthcare access, education deficits, food and housing insecurity, and beyond.
Apps due SUNDAY, Nov 16 @ 11:59pm
NLVS is a 501c3 nonprofit that has mobilized volunteers in health, education, and service for 26 years. Apply to join a team of students from 8 different medical and undergraduate universities (with more being added!) who are passionate about addressing health, food, education, housing, and so many other disparities -- and an organization that will give you the tools and infrastructure to effectively do so.
Board members this year have:
- Continued to lead a free clinic in Roger's Park that serves a population of largely immigrant, non-English language preference, and un- or underinsured patients
- Run specialty clinics and culturally competent health education projects for patients and other community members
- Run a Midwest-wide completely free tutoring program, with increased funding and access to resources
- Co-led the national Society for Student-Run Free Clinics conference, with many board members presenting research
- Organized and led a global health relief trip to Panama, assisting hundreds of patients, and an UPCOMING global health conference
- Increased the number of service partnerships with shelters, food pantries, and other service orgs across the Midwest
- And way, way more... any effort you can think of is possible with a team of equally passionate individuals and a quarter of a century of organizing experience.
Please reach out to me with any questions.
