Project HEALTH is an organization that seeks to break the link between poverty and poor health. We mobilize college students to work in urban community clinics and provide low-income families in Baltimore with access to a wide variety of resources. We also work closely with doctors, nurses, lawyers, and social workers to provide patients with a holistic approach to health care that complements the care provided by health professionals in the clinical setting. UMBC, in partnership with St. Agnes Hospital, has launched a family-resource desk to connect families to community resources critical to their health, safety and economic survival.
