Community & Preventive Medicine Scholarship
Expected opening - Fall 2023
Sponsored by the Osteopathic Founders Foundation
The Osteopathic philosophy encourages the treatment of our patients through a whole body experience, taking account for matters of the mind, body and spirit. Osteopathic physicians bring this idea into their practice of community and preventive medicine where the philosophy thrives and allows a better quality of life for their patients. The Osteopathic Founders Foundation looks to acknowledge students who have a passion for working in community health and look to advance within Preventive Medicine with this $1,000.00 award.
