University of California, San Diego (UCSD) medical students are on Gallaudet’s campus for the third year to participate in the UCSD-Gallaudet ASL, Deaf Culture, and Cancer Control Project.

The program aims to prepare medical students to become clinical leaders dedicated to improving access to health care and cancer prevention and control information to the deaf and hard of hearing community.

While at Gallaudet for the June 25 to July 21 session, the students in this year’s program are participating in ASL classes, presenting cancer prevention information sessions to various groups in the deaf community, and attending seminars on deafness and health care.
 
YAY!

I know some of those med students so I am so proud of them! The program is such a great idea and I am glad I did work with them.
