CHAT is an organization that provides opportunities to learn about health care issues in our urban Baltimore community. This year, our lecture series will introduce students to issues including addiction, homelessness, nutrition & obesity, sex trafficking, and HIV. The goal of these lectures is to present different issues, what is currently in place to address such issues, and how this impacts us as students and future physicians. In the past, this organization was involved in service projects that provided students with hands on experience in community health issues. These projects included the Mountain Manor Initiative and the Powell House Project. Whether these services projects will be restarted remains to be seen.
