STUDENT WORK
Health Disparities Project
The Health Disparities Project is designed to help students learn about the complex issues surrounding inequality in healthcare, encouraging them to explore how factors like income, location, race, and gender affect access and quality. The goal is to equip students with the tools to identify these injustices, understand their causes, and develop practical solutions for a fairer healthcare system.
