Abstract: This article discusses a student-led refugee initiative called the PSCOM Refugee Initiative (RI) that aims to address the lack of awareness about health disparities among medical trainees. The initiative began in 2016 and initially focused on providing tutoring services and food security to resettled Syrian refugee families in Harrisburg, PA. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the program faced new challenges and had to adapt its services. The article highlights the benefits of community relationships and interdisciplinary teamwork in understanding and addressing social determinants of health (SDH) and health disparities. The authors also discuss lessons learned from their experience and suggest integrating key lessons into medical curricula to benefit all students. The article concludes by emphasizing the importance of constant evaluation and innovation in improving similar refugee initiatives and enhancing the competency of graduating medical students in applying SDH in their future medical practice.
