Notes
The Family Van was founded by an HMS faculty member and is operated in conjunction with Harvard-affiliated Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. The vehicle-based community outreach program goes directly to its clients in their neighborhoods to educate, counsel, and connect them to appropriate and available health services. The Van parks on the street corners in some of Boston's poorest neighborhoods, and offers its free and confidential services on a walk-in basis. Most of its clients are poor, uninsured, and at high risk for bad health outcomes.
