Additional Opportunities

Rowan-Virtua SOM's Community Programs

Rowan-Virtua SOM students particpate in service activites at school and in our surrounding community. The osteopathic philosophy plays an important role in our involvement of treating not just the patient, but the whole community. Please consider supporting our community initiatives, so that we can continue to provide empathetic, compassionate care to our patients.

Rowan-Virtua SOM has a strong community service mission, sponsoring three Area Health Education Centers (AHECs), which are the only programs of their type in the state.

1. OMM Clinic - In 2013, Rowan-Virtua SOM students opened a free community OMM clinic on the first and third Saturdays of the month.
   
   
2. Rowan Community Health Center (RCHC)- The Rowan Community Health Center is a student-driven free clinic located in Lindenwold, NJ. It is managed by medical students of the Rowan University School of Medicine and caters to the health needs of the Camden community.
   
   
3. Project REACH (Revitalizing Education & Advancing Camden's Health) - An innovative, multifaceted approach to addressing the needs of the youth of Camden. Project REACH implements youth-initiated community health service projects in Camden using a problem-based learning approach to teach preventative health in Camden middle schools.
