The Outreach & Advocacy Committee of the Bruins Public Health Club is dedicated to addressing public health challenges through awareness and policy campaigns that prioritize disseminating well-researched and reliable information. The committee empowers its members to select and explore public health issues they are passionate about, fostering collaboration across committees. By organizing informational booths at collaborative events, creating engaging infographics for social media, and hosting a Public Health Fair, BPH Outreach actively champions change and strives to educate and inspire the UCLA community.

Catch Bruins Public Health on uclaradio.com on Saturdays from 2-3 pm throughout the quarter! Join DJ Outreach and DJ Pulse Beat as they analyze public health topics, global health challenges, and a wide range of initiatives to address and solve these problems. Whether discussing a public health related case study or focusing on BPH’s current projects, these two will dive into the importance of public health and how students can make a difference in this field.
At the Vituity Cares Pop-up Clinic, BPH members collaborate closely with clinicians, registered nurses, medical students, and various student organizations to deliver essential services, including basic clinical care, medication prescriptions, haircuts, and the distribution of food and clothing. By supporting residents of Skid Row, BPH members play a critical role in identifying individuals in need, engaging patients in conversations about their medical history and current symptoms, and conducting vital sign assessments.
