Meet Sara Maldonado, a HealthCorps Navigator serving in CHC’s School-Based Health Centers.
– Can you tell us a bit about your educational background?
I graduated in May 2012 from Tufts University in Medford, MA and majored in Community Health and Latin American Studies.

I’m most excited to be able to work in underserved populations and gain hands on experience working in different communities.
– If not seeing patients/serving at CHC you would rather be _____________?
With friends or family hanging out, going to movies, excursions, etc.

The Foo Fighters

I have the ability to fall asleep nearly anywhere

The New York Yankees

– What is one thing you would like the CHC team to know about you?
The one thing I would want the CHC team to know about me is that I’m dedicated to the message that health care is a right not a privilege. That idea is what made me switch from wanting to be a doctor to wanting to have a part in changing the laws that would guarantee health care for all.
