In conjunction with the Brewster Center for Women, a local domestic violence shelter, medical students travel to the shelter to provide care to the women and children staying there. This clinic occurs twice a month. This clinic provides healthcare to the Yaqui Indians in the town of Guadalupe.
Students work with volunteer physicians on teams, and provide intake and translation.
Hundreds of patients are seen at this daylong clinic, with the church providing the patients and their families with food, bags of clothing and toys.

This clinic occurs monthly. Subjects include contraception, STD's, HIV, nutrition, and decision-making. Medical students travel to rural communities to provide AIDS education in public schools.
