Abstract
The Community Health and Social Medicine (CHASM) Incubator is an interdisciplinary social impact venture that improves the health outcomes of local, historically marginalized Montreal communities. CHASM encourages students to identify a concrete health need in an underprivileged population, and co-create a project in partnership with community organizations to address it. Student projects are given a framework to scale their ideas. This includes:
- Mentorship by business and public health experts;
- A social entrepreneurship and sustainability curriculum with bimonthly, interactive workshops;
- Financial empowerment;
- A committed network of student leaders that supports and publicizes the projects.
