CURA
CURA is a pre-orientation program for first-year students who wish to pursue any career in the healthcare field. CURA seeks to provide students with the opportunity to begin an educational journey in health care systems through a variety of activities, such as speaking engagements, clinician panels, direct service, community engagement, and clinical shadowing, through a variety of medical clinicals sponsored by Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Washington.

- CURA will challenge students’ world view by providing opportunities to engage in social justice work and participate in conversations around such topics as social determinants of health, physical health, and wellbeing.
