About us ISCOPES (Interdisciplinary Student Community-Oriented Prevention Enhancement Service) is an evolving health focused service-learning initiative that places GW students, staff, and faculty from various fields of study as well as community practitioners and neighbors from the DC metro area in interprofessional Learning Communities to address bigger picture health issues through smarter service projects. From September through April, students serve on project teams within these Learning Communities and tackle health issues with multi-dimensional service projects. Culturally mindful service, inclusivity of diverse thought, and doing something about real health issues are the ingredients of ISCOPES. This is the world of health... evolved.
