Alumni
Since the Clinic’s founding in 1999 we’ve trained over 500 volunteers to provide outreach, administrative, and clinical services.
A recent survey reveals that many of our alumni volunteers continue to feel the positive effects of their volunteer experience at the Clinic.
- Eighty-three percent of alumni see their Clinic experience as extremely valuable
- Ninety-seven percent would recommend the Clinic Health Worker volunteer program to their friends
Many of our volunteers go on to pursue careers as leaders in the health care field and in their communities.
Where are they now?
Here are updates from some of our fabulous alumni!
I began a nursing program in January 2009. My volunteer experiences at the Clinic truly reinforced my commitment to serve others. The Clinic is not only a place; it is a place that embodies each client that walks through the front doors.
My work at the Clinic helped me understand the culture I lived in and offered me the opportunity to try something completely different in my career. Loved working there, loved the people I worked with, and I learned a lot.
I am still working at the Center for Gender Equity at UCSF as the Program Assistant. I am taking prerequisites for nursing school and will be applying for Accelerated RN programs sometime in 2009.
I am now the Health Administrator for the local health department. Having first hand experience providing care to clients at the Clinic gives me a unique perspective that allows me to support individual and population based services
I am working as a nursing assistant on rehabilitation floor in a local hospital- and start my RN program in August 2009. I'm really happy to be back with my family but miss San Francisco and its freethinkers every day.
Through all of my experiences at the Women's Community Clinic I have grown tremendously and because of you landed my first job after my Masters as a health educator working with homeless women.
I just finished an accelerated BSN program in Oakland, and I am now a recently registered nurse. I plan to return to the Clinic as a volunteer clinician now that I have the time and the license.
As a Summer Health Intern, Cassidy is excited to work directly with clients and believes that everyone should have access to quality reproductive health care.
My experience at the Clinic has enabled me to critically analyze the reproductive health issues here in the Philippines among poor women, as Likhaan's Reproductive Health Research, Policy, & Advocacy Intern.
