In the fall, Health Equity Circle (HEC) students are working directly with Sound Alliance under the supervision of Dr. Rick Arnold to offer UCONJ 624: Health Equity and Community Organizing in Autumn 2014. This course will equip students from the six health sciences schools to work together to develop community organizing skills focused on upstream action for health equity. Through HEC, students will have the opportunity to participate in a campaign with community members during the 2014-2015 academic year.

Students can email David Fernando directly for course access (somwwami@uw.edu). We look forward to offering students novel and quality experiences to support health equity. 

Health Equity Circle (HEC) is a SoM started interdisciplinary registered student organization. We are committed to student development through interdisciplinary advocacy and community organizing opportunities in the greater Seattle area.
