// Mission Statement //
We strive to improve the health and well being of the homeless while raising the awareness of medical students and undergraduates to the unique needs of this traditionally ignored population. Using the tools of screening, education and advocacy, we endeavor to detect and prevent disease, to teach basic life skills, and to promote utilization of community services. Our goal for each patient is to catalyze their transition from control to personal health to self reliance and ultimately to understand their ability to contribute to society and to their well being. Our goal for each student is to incite appreciation for the diversity of health care needs and foster the commitment to improve medicine for all.
// Prospective Volunteers //
The Willow Project begins accepting applications for membership during Fall quarter every academic year (usually October/November). Around this time, we post flyers and send e-mails through the UC Davis ICC list serve. If you are interested in joining The Willow Project, we encourage you to submit an application during the next application period.
