Olivia Garavaglia

I was able to volunteer at Cabrini Clinic. This clinic offers patients the opportunity to see a doctor and receive prescription and nonprescription medication free of charge. Every time I visit Cabrini Clinic I gain insight into the daily operations of a working pharmacy, and the disparities in health care in the United States. Many people, especially in the Detroit area, are unable to pay for their prescriptions because of low income and lack of health insurance. I always leave the clinic satisfied that I have helped the population of Detroit, learned more about my future career, and made important contacts within the community of pharmacists.
