SQUADS ABROAD

Global Health Squads mobilizes students abroad to help improve health care access and sanitation infrastructure for children in under-resourced communities abroad. Projects include: mobile health clinics for children, building handwashing stations at schools, providing nutrition education and dental and vision clinics. Health Squads is a program of Global Brigades, a highly recognized international development organization that uniquely implements a Holistic Model that targets specific UN Sustainable Development goals within partner communities. Our model systematically builds community ownership and collaboratively executes programs with the end goal of sustainably transitioning to a relationship of impact monitoring.
