Who We Are
Community Health Alliance is a group of like-minded health professional students, working toward the following goals through community involvement and student activism: Listen. Learn. Lift.
Listen to local leaders and organizations to learn of big and small ways in which we, as KUMC students, can serve the community.
Learn how to be true community providers, serving patients beyond the clinic walls.
Lift our communities to a healthier, more equitable future.

What We Do
We have partnerships with many Wichita-based organizations including:
