“This year I had the opportunity to work with the uninsured at Cabrini Clinic in Detroit. The clinic has revealed to me the extreme need this country has to help those who fall through the medical-social safety net. The patients have taught me about the unseen world that affects and often is a detriment to one’s health.”
-Ben Dylik: Detroit
