The Family Help Desk is manned by trained student volunteers. After conducting an extensive needs assessment, the volunteer then works with the patient to identify and secure required resources, provide information, determine eligibility criteria and connect with resources, and assist in completing applications for resources. Student volunteers experience the health-care system as well as gain understanding of the link between health and poverty.
