As UCF becomes more inclusive and diverse, our mission is to synergize with community partners to become the model for delivering interdisciplinary, culturally competent, and patient-centered care to underserved communities. We harness a team of interprofessional faculty and students designed to provide accessible and affordable interdisciplinary health care services to the underserved population of Central Florida and abroad.
Our work would not be possible without the help of our gracious volunteers and donors.
