We recruit around 30-40 student members per cohort.

Student members are required to attend weekly general body meetings, where members and officers collaborate, plan, and prepare for ongoing projects, including clinical training. Meetings are held in Seattle, and attendance is mandatory.

The exact dates and duration are still being determined, but the clinic typically lasts about two weeks. Our clinic operates on a bi-annual schedule. The most recent clinic took place in Summer 2023, and the next clinic is projected for Summer 2025.

The estimated cost for participation is about $2,500 for the full two weeks, covering flights, lodging, food, transportation, and excursions. We will collaborate with students to help reduce costs and offer payment options as needed.

• Student members actively participate in the health clinic and are required to attend meetings and training sessions to prepare for their roles in serving patients.

• Volunteers, on the other hand, do not participate in the clinic and are not required to attend meetings or fulfill training requirements. Volunteers assist with local events and projects as needed.
