A Little "Healthy" Competition
A Community Engagement & Health Awareness Challenge
During the Experiential Learning visit, students will have the opportunity for some "healthy" competition. The "Healthy Miami Collaborative Challenge" will offer a hands-on opportunity for the program participants. Students will be divided into two teams and partnered with Community Health Workers from a local community health center for a community engagement competition.
Each team will conduct outreach and engage individuals to offer basic health screenings. The challenge emphasizes collaboration, communication, and cultural competence requiring students to build trust and communicate essential health services. The team that conducts the most screenings wins!
