CARE at UC San Diego

Service & Changemaking. CARE (Community Access & Resilience Education) at UC San Diego aims to reduce barriers to healthcare and food assistance for underserved communities through student-led service and education. Members will receive CARE training to support benefits applications, offer preventive health and nutrition workshops, and teach digital skills for accessing services. The chapter will develop local community partnerships, with initial activities focused on volunteer training, a benefits enrollment drive, and a health education workshop. Volunteers will protect client confidentiality, work within their training, and refrain from providing legal or immigration advice.
