The Social Mission Committee (SMC), one of the four pillar student organizations at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine (VUSM), works to further the mission of promoting health care for all in the communities we serve. A student-run, student founded organization, our mission is as follows:

SMC at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine empowers students, faculty, and staff to actively partner with individuals and communities to achieve health care for all.

Our philosophy is to educate future physician leaders who understand the complex systems of care and the impact of social determinants of health.
