Capriana Jiang ’23
On a typical weeknight, you can find Capriana Jiang ’23 at the Neighborhood Clinic in Tacoma’s Hilltop neighborhood. Each night, the free clinic sees about a dozen patients. Jiang is a clinical support volunteer, helping clients fill out their intake forms, checking their vitals, and keeping exam rooms clean and well stocked. For Jiang, who is a pre-med student at University of Puget Sound, volunteering at the Neighborhood Clinic has offered more than just valuable experience, it’s taught her about the value of affordable health care.
