Physician innovators from Carle Illinois College of Medicine (CI MED) are bringing free health screenings and resources within reach for people facing barriers to care, including central Illinois' LatinX community. Carle Illinois medical students Aashka Shah, Kellie Mullany, Sabrina Mann, and Tarika Patel are leaders in Campaña de Salud, a student interest group at CI MED working to bridge gaps in health care access faced by historically underserved populations. Campaña de Salud is hosting a community health fair as part of Hispanic Heritage Patriotic Month.
