Learn more about your impact
The College of Public Service and Community Solutions is leasing 15,000 square feet of space on the first floor of the historic Westward Ho building, but this is not the beginning of the relationship. ASU nursing students currently provide residents with health services such as blood pressure checks, nutritional help and disease prevention programs. The expanded facility will also give residents access to counseling, referral services and community assistance as well as educational and cultural enrichment opportunities. The clinic will provide hands-on experience and professional development training for students majoring in social work, nutrition, therapeutic recreation and nursing.
