Healthier Together

Tufts University’s reputation for health sciences innovation extends to many unique community partnerships, from free medical care at The Sharewood Project to Jumbo’s Kitchen cooking classes for kids led by nutrition and medical students.

Everyone deserves equal healthcare access and it starts with getting people the information they need about their health.
