Health Policy Interest Group

This interest group is meant for everyone who is

interested in advancing and safeguarding human

health through policy, no matter from where any one

member is starting. Our approach aims to reach

throughout all levels of OHSU, from recruiting

interested students and organizing grassroots efforts

to introduce/advocate policy, to long-lasting

institutional implementation of an advocacy skills

curriculum.

In this group…

Start where you are. Share your strengths,

and acknowledge your deficits;

We advocate for any policy that is good for

human health;

We aim to better understand the political

landscape of Oregon;

We aim to develop our advocacy skills, both

individually and collectively;

We believe safeguarding human health is

intricately connected to many seemingly

disparate things (research, statistics,

business, human psychology), so we will also

look to difference disciplines to develop and

advocate for solid health policy;

We believe in working collectively with

existing student interest groups to advance

our common goals; connection leads to

Students Against Gun

Violence

As OHSU students we stand in solidarity with people and communities impacted by gun violence. As future health professionals, we have a duty to minimize vectors of human illness and injury - including gun violence - and to contextualize these forces within social, economic, and political frameworks. We recognize the ongoing work of activists on this issue and seek to elevate their voices through our advocacy. As twenty-first century health care workers we will address the disproportionate rates of gun violence against communities of color, women-identified people, members of the LGBTQ community, and those with mental illness. We will address state-sanctioned violence against communities of color and the vilification of those with mental illness in the gun control discourse. We must use our privilege and power to elevate the voices of those harmed by gun violence. We must act now.
