About Us

Students for Global Health and Sustainability (SGHS)

SGHS was established in the fall of 2015. We had a goal to take an international mission trip to Nicaragua, which we did in June 2016. Our work included clinic rotations, children’s health, and public health projects.

​

Since then, our trips and projects have included:

Trips: 

St. Paul, MN: Women of Nations Native American Women’s Shelter - May 2017.

Our work included nutrition and reproductive health workshops, health screenings (blood pressure, diabetes, breast health), and coping skills activities.

​

Cleveland, OH: Laura’s Home - Women’s Crisis Center - July 2018

Our work included painting a room for a resident family.

​

Muskogee, OK - June 2019

We assisted with flood relief efforts.
