Connect 2 Health - The University of Utah

Become a Health Advocate!

The priority application period had ended. We look forward to receiving you application for the regular application cycle for Spring and Summer 2025 between January 6 - 17, 2025.

Our Mission

Working alongside students to connect underserved patients with vital services while shaping future healthcare professionals who understand the impact of social factors on health.

What we do

Connect2Health mobilizes student health advocates to link individuals in our community with resources that address their social determinants of health and provides students with an impactful volunteering experience.

Why we do it

Addressing SDOH is essential for enhancing patient-centered care. By understanding and tackling the root causes of poor health, healthcare providers can have a more meaningful impact on their patients' lives. However, many physicians report feeling overwhelmed by the complex social challenges their patients face and often shy away from discussing these issues, focusing instead on medical treatments. This is where we come in!
