About

Picture
California Health Professional and Student Alliance (CaHPSA) is a healthcare organization for any student interested in healthcare, political science, or advocacy. The UCSB CaHPSA chapter was founded in the Spring of 2017 by a group of students who are passionate about comprehensive, high-quality, accessible, guaranteed, and affordable health care for all Californians.

Our Mission

Picture
We hope to help educate others on various healthcare bills and programs, promote advocacy for underrepresented populations, encourage debate of different viewpoints relating to health, and cultivate leadership skills for each member of our organization.

Our members are involved with lobbying Santa Barbara Town Hall for improved programs for disadvantaged individuals living in SB and Isla Vista, interacting with underserved communities as caseworkers to help them learn about and sign up for different healthcare options, and working with on campus organization such as Associated Students, the Women’s Center, and Student Health to increase transparency and improve health services on the UCSB campus.
