Project Overview

Touro University Nevada (TUN) has long been providing medical care to underserved and homeless populations including over 10,200 COVID vaccines. The pandemic has worsened already limited access to basic medical and Covid-related care. A major gap in care exists for the unsheltered homeless living in unsanitary encampments in the Las Vegas Valley. In collaboration with agencies that serve the homeless, the Touro Mobile Health Clinic will bring medical care and vaccines directly to the encampments.
