Helping Baltimore Residents Improve their Health & Well-Being

Offered as a public service, Mini-Medical School ("Mini-Med School") is a tuition-free lecture series provided by University of Maryland School of Medicine faculty, during which the lay public learns about diseases and their prevention.

The program began 18 years ago with a session for adults and has now expanded to adult seniors and local city youth.

Over 8,000 local community members have participated in the Mini-Med School Program!
