Interdisciplinary and Experiential Learning within the Homeless Community: Connecting Community Work to Students and Schools
Craig Kaufmann, MD and Megan Smith, MSW.
This Think Tank will review how a community based program to serve homeless individuals can serve as a launching pad for the development of multiple educational opportunities and connections to academic institutions. It will provide an opportunity to discuss novel approaches to form interdisciplinary and experiential education and to create future practitioners familiar with the unique challenges and rewards in serving homeless individuals.
