Are you an aspiring MD, DO, PA or NP? Are you looking for something to do this summer? Want to spend 4 weeks living and serving in Chicagos Southwest side? Lawndale Christian Health Center is currently accepting applications for our summer medical project taking place between June 24th and July 26th, 2014.
The Lawndale Summer Medical Project is a 4 week summer program where senior pre-med/pre-midlevel students and current medical students have the opportunity to work alongside Christian clinicians to help to serve a medically underserved community. Students live and work in the Lawndale neighborhood in order to experience total immersion in the community. LSMP focuses on chronic care patients who do not access routine care and also participate in hosting health screenings at various community health fairs. It is a wonderful opportunity to grow in your faith, understand barriers to healthcare, learn from current medical practitioners and interact with the beautiful people of this community.
You can find more information and the application on our website http://lawndale.org/content/summer-programs-high-school-medical-students. The application deadline is Wednesday March 12, 2014. Questions? Please contact Elizabeth Murray at lsmp@lawndale.org
