Community Partners
Stanford University and the School of Medicine value their partnerships with community organizations. The Office of Community Health (OCH) is dedicated to collaborating with partners to identify how Stanford's various academic programs and resources may support their organization's needs. The OCH works to strengthen Stanford-community partnerships by serving as a centralized resource to facilitate communication between students, faculty, and community partners regarding collaborative community health projects.
The OCH uses resources from Community-Campus Partnerships in Health as a guide for establishing and maintaining strong community partnerhip principles. In addition, the Office has developed recommended guidelines for engaging in community partnerships that are used in several service-learning courses.
The OCH is very grateful to have partners who support its mission to foster and support community-responsive scholarship, advocacy, and public service aimed at improving the health of underserved populations.
