Patient Advocacy Program
APPLY NOW
for the 2010-11 ACADEMIC YEAR
Applications due March 1, 2010
The Patient Advocacy Program was developed in Fall 2004 to meet
intersecting needs in the community and at Stanford University:
- The need among area clinics for reliable, trained volunteers
to enhance patient care
- The demand among students for substantive clinical and
community-based experiences with underserved populations
- The need to build a diverse and culturally competent healthcare workforce
The Patient Advocacy Program vision is to sustain a reliable corps of
trained student volunteers at area free and community clinics with
minimal impact on the partner clinics’ resources.
Students interested in participating in the Patient Advocacy Program must apply in the Winter. Acceptance to the Program is contingent upon a student’s commitment to enroll in the required course and complete the clinic-based program requirements over the subsequent academic year.
