The JMP trains physicians who are passionate about spreading health far beyond the clinic. I'm proud to have trained in such an inclusive and forward-thinking program and future generations of doctors deserve that same chance.

There simply is no other medical training program in the US like the Joint Medical Program. Its graduates are committed to serving the under-served and they will represent the very best kind of humanitarian physicians

The JMP inspired me to become an educator at an academic county hospital in southern California, caring for the underserved and giving back to our community. I love what I do!

As an alum and faculty of this amazing program, I am saddened and angered that this is being considered. The JMP has a rich history of training doctors as social advocates and public health leaders. We will make this VERY clear to our university and state leaders as we fight to save the program.

The students in the JMP serve as role models for the undergraduates they work with. I and other undergraduates have grown immensely as empathetic service providers and as professionals from our work alongside JMP students, and they have been an integral part of my education at UC Berkeley. Additionally, the JMP provides essential medical services to underserved communities in a setting that is unique from a traditional clinic. Some individuals they see do not have insurance and have not been to a primary care physician for over 10 years. The JMP's medical services in Berkeley are well known in the homeless community, and the JMP is an essential link for homeless individuals to accessing more comprehensive healthcare. Cutting this program would leave many marginalized individuals in Alameda County without a safety net and unable to receive the high quality care that they need. Please consider the effect that the JMP has on the greater Berkeley community when reevaluating this decision.
