CASA stands for court appointed court advocates and is a program that has been created to stand up for children in the foster care system and to help them fight for a safe home ("National Court Appointed). The mission statement for CASA is together with state and local member programs CASA supports and promotes court-appointed volunteer advocacy so every abused or neglected child in the U.S. can be safe, have a permanent home and opportunity to thrive ("National Court Appointed).

The community itself was within Central Valley, California, which was also known to be largely medically underserved and economically disadvantaged. I was able to witness this firsthand, as a college student focused on pursuing medicine, the impact of healthcare disparities, and social determinants of health. These experiences have instilled in me a commitment to serving and empowering marginalized communities. By actively engaging with other campus-based organizations and promoting health education initiatives, I aspire to contribute to RFU’s community outreach efforts and foster positive change in the communities

However, I have chosen to apply only to the University of Michigan’s EMHSA program. Other than the fact that School of Public Health at the University of Michigan consistently ranks among the top programs in the country, it is the only program that takes an execution- focused approach to various aspects of healthcare delivery by offering courses like Leadership/Capstone, Health IT Management, Spreadsheet Modeling, Biostatistics and Health Economics.
