Our Goal...

is to expand medical education to better prepare future physicians to be effective with an increasingly diverse patient population. We hope to accomplish this by offering programs that promote knowledge and skills appropriate for addressing health care disparities. Our efforts include research opportunities, community involvement, course work, clinical experiences, workshops, and conferences.

California generally, and Santa Clara County specifically, are home to significant numbers of low-income immigrants, minorities, and other disadvantaged patient populations. For decades, the Stanford School of Medicine has affiliated with clinical facilities that provide care to these groups throughout Santa Clara County. More
