UR HEAL is a student organization dedicated to providing information and health care services to low-income members of the greater Rochester community.<\/p>\n<p>Pending approval, UR HEAL will use the endowment to purchase blood pressure cuffs so that they may provide regular screenings for the patrons at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/amealandmore.org\/\">A Meal &amp; More<\/a><\/strong> soup kitchen. With this funding, the group will be able to purchase additional health services such as a scale and BMI charts. UR HEAL anticipates tabling monthly at A Meal &amp; More for the remainder of the semester; they hope to begin blood pressure screenings and will be distributing pamphlets with information about local health services that specialize in serving lower-income populations.<\/p>\n<p>This competition is generously supported by the Class of 2011 Community Service Fund. Donald Polaski, the administrative chair of the 2011 Class Council, served on the review panel for the Community Engagement Challenge and helped select the winning project. This fund aims to strengthen the University\u2019s relationship with the City of Rochester and highlight students\u2019 efforts to give back to the community.<\/p>\n<p>Submissions for the 2017-2018 academic year will open in April, at which time information for applicants will be posted on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/college\/rccl\/service\/challenge\/\"><strong>Community Engagement Challeng<\/strong>e<\/a> website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The student organization provides health care services to low-income members of the greater Rochester community, and is the inaugural winner of this challenge grant.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":862,"featured_media":219632,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[18612,9436,9046],"class_list":["post-219612","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-campus-community","tag-announcements","tag-community","tag-rochester-center-for-community-leadership"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>UR HEAL wins Community Engagement Challenge<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/newscenter\/ur-heal-wins-community-engagement-challenge-219612\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"UR HEAL wins Community Engagement Challenge\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The student organization provides health care services to low-income members of the greater Rochester community, and is the inaugural winner of this challenge grant.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/newscenter\/ur-heal-wins-community-engagement-challenge-219612\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"News Center\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2017-02-21T20:56:47+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2017-02-21T20:58:08+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/newscenter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/URHeal2.png\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1000\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/png\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Susan Ziegler\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Susan Ziegler\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.rochester.edu\\\/newscenter\\\/ur-heal-wins-community-engagement-challenge-219612\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.rochester.edu\\\/newscenter\\\/ur-heal-wins-community-engagement-challenge-219612\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Susan Ziegler\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.rochester.edu\\\/newscenter\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/fd00aebf7ff18acb7dcd1d31484b5cf3\"},\"headline\":\"UR HEAL wins Community Engagement Challenge\",\"datePublished\":\"2017-02-21T20:56:47+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2017-02-21T20:58:08+00:00\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.rochester.edu\\\/newscenter\\\/ur-heal-wins-community-engagement-challenge-219612\\\/\"},\"wordCount\":227,\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.rochester.edu\\\/newscenter\\\/ur-heal-wins-community-engagement-challenge-219612\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.rochester.edu\\\/newscenter\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2017\\\/02\\\/URHeal2.png\",\"keywords\":[\"announcements\",\"community\",\"Rochester Center for Community Leadership\"],\"articleSection\":[\"Campus &amp;
