Camp MDFuture
Why expand Dr. Camp/Camp MD?
• To be inclusive and encourage this cultural shift. • To empower the students to work together by sharing their projects and ideas with the
other campus students. • To mentor one another by providing their successful project model to serve as a
structural template for creating statewide cohesion while keeping campus individuality for the common project.
• To include center students at satellite campuses.
• Center students can contribute to class activities on their own time, and they can put their own creative spin on their extracurricular chapters allowing center students to feel more included, while also giving them ownership of their own local project.
Camp MDFuture
• Currently, there are two sites working on a Doctor Camp expansion and we know there CAN and WILL be more in the near future.
• Our Indianapolis camp would not be possible without the support and partnership from our local MICI-AHEC office
• Because of the enthusiasm of students like Lisa Fink, we now have multiple project leaders fostering the nine doors to ONE school approach through statewide student engagement opportunities
• We also have to applaud other inter-professional student volunteers along with Marti Reeser and Rene Jackson in the IUSM Health Professions Program
