What is Service Learning?
Service learning is a structured educational experience that combines community service with explicit learning objectives, preparation and reflection. Across all four schools and the graduate division, UCSF offers service learning opportunities to engage locally, regionally, and on a national and global scale to improve health and promote health equity. Successful service learning is a reciprocal process that benefits both community and campus partners. Partners equally share expertise, resources and leadership.
Connection to others and being part of a community committed to addressing health disparities is something that is really satisfying.
