Abstract
In Tennessee, African Americans suffer significantly from infant morbidity, sexually transmitted diseases, and deaths from vascular disease and cancer. The Meharry Medical College Wellness Project addresses these health disparities with a service learning curriculum focused on community-based research. Trained minority undergraduates have conducted 355 Institutional Review Board-approved community intervention projects statewide.
