University District Street Medicine Volunteer Opportunity

Volunteer with University District Street Medicine!

UDSM is a student-run, interdisciplinary organization that strives to improve health equity among those experiencing homelessness in Seattle’s University District. We bring together health sciences graduate students with health professionals in our community to care for those experiencing homelessness in the University District by providing health services including basic first aid, vital sign acquisition and resource referral and navigation. Currently, UDSM conducts ten outreaches per month throughout the U District and central Seattle.

Social Work students are an essential part of our teams! We are recruiting volunteers to participate in outreach sessions (time commitment based on your availability) and for leadership positions (3-5 hour per month commitment). We are seeking grad student volunteers for all positions for both spring and summer 2020 and for the 2020-2021 academic year.
