For Equity in Health
from
Coast to Coast
Health should not be a privilege.
Wingspan is a student-led healthcare consulting initiative addressing health inequity across the US.
We consult with clinics and nonprofit providers and help them spread their cause. Wingspan empowers teens to support existing initiatives, launch their own, and foster change via other avenues.
Wingspan branches address the many sides and roots of health to improve health across the board. From mental health to education access, our work includes both immediate relief and structural solutions.
The National Team and its branches create a united front of health across the country, while our unique structure still allows students to put their communities first.
