Consortium

The DOCS National Health Leadership Consortium is an effort to promote collaboration and communication between student organizations at medical schools across the country. Our functions are two-fold:

1) Help medical students establish health projects at their schools. DOCS has led student-run health fairs and clinics in South Florida for over forty years, and has built an incredibly successful model. We aim to  disseminate this model through our Facebook page in conjunction with Disseminating the Model.  

2) Facilitate as a forum where our schools can share resources, exchange ideas, establish partnerships, and conduct national research projects: DOCS Consortium Facebook. DOCS also recognizes other student organizations have crafted incredibly successful projects of their own, and we encourage these organizations to share their wisdom and resources with similar organizations at other institutions, such as the University of Miami, via our online forum.  

We hope schools will engage in a continuous dialogue via our Facebook page to improve the efficacy and efficiency of our nation’s student organizations. Contributors to the forum are considered members of our National Health Leadership Consortium, and are paving the way to improving the health of communities across the United States.
