Rather than focusing solely on the individual patient as the unit of intervention, the program extends towards the community as the unit of change, diagnosing community-wide barriers/issues (e.
g.
, racism, sexism, trans-/homo-phobia, housing instability, food insecurity) rather than illness alone, and addressing them with community-powered solutions and leadership development for civic engagement.

Don't Be Fooled

The fraudster will send a check to the victim who has accepted a job. The check can be for multiple reasons such as signing bonus, supplies, etc. The victim will be instructed to deposit the check and use the money for any of these reasons and then instructed to send the remaining funds to the fraudster. The check will bounce and the victim is left responsible.
