Our application is active until Wednesday, September 14th at 11:59 PM and can be found at https://forms.gle/HQuPACR65RYnfvbX7 .

Collegiate Health Service Corps (CHSC) is an organization functioning under Health Education Center (HEC) that seeks to connect pre-professional students with local medically underserved populations in order to provide culturally competent, educational health lessons. In the past CHSC has worked with several different sites including Pride's Corner Farms (a migrant worker farm), Covenant Soup Kitchen, an after school program, and community centers. We have a dual mission of working with local populations to provide effective resources and preventative health lessons.
