2024 Health Care Equity Fair

Save the Date!

The HCEF is an exciting event organized by OHSU students from across the different schools, a recent partnership with COMP-NW, health care professionals, and community partners focused on raising awareness of disparities in health care and providing much-needed free health services to hundreds of uninsured and underserved Oregonians. The HCEF involves a lecture series aimed at educating the public about health care equity and culminates with the fair, held the first weekend of October in downtown Portland. Our capstone event, the health care equity fair, has had immense success in providing important health screenings to the local underserved, especially targeting housing-insecure populations. We have previously aided over 300 people annually, offering free services including first aid, on-site physician consults, blood pressure readings, eye exams, diabetic screenings, foot care, hearing tests, hair and lice care, veterinary services, social services, and mental and sexual health resources.
