June 2011 UC Santa Barbara Medical Brigade

Start Date: Jun 12, 2011 11:00 PM
End Date: Jun 18, 2011 11:00 PM

Medical Brigade volunteers set up medical clinics in pre-identified communities to provide health care where access is limited. Each community receives a brigade every 3-4 months and between brigades the in-country team maintains relationships with the communities to provide follow-up and conducts community health worker trainings to empower local leaders to perpetuate a consistent level of health care.
