Florida Muslim charitable clinics: mobilizing the Muslim community to address health disparities amid a pandemic

Chahal, Ryan 07 February 2022 (has links)
Muslim Charitable Clinics are free healthcare clinics that provide healthcare services to uninsured patients of all faiths, free of charge, and publicly identify as Muslim. This study seeks to better understand Muslim Charitable Clinics’ potential to provide vital healthcare services to communities in need while promoting mutual understanding between Muslim and Non-Muslim Americans. The data consists of a case study of one Muslim Charitable Clinic in Longwood, Florida, the American Muslim Community Clinic, and a national survey of Muslim Charitable Clinics. The American Muslim Community Clinic operates a uniquely flexible model with profound benefits for underserved residents in the surrounding Longwood community. The study will explore how the clinic's Muslim identity may also help promote mutual understanding between Muslim and non-Muslim Americans by providing the Muslim American community with positive exposure and visibility. Comparing the findings from this case study to data reported in a national survey of Muslim Charitable Clinics, this thesis finds that the American Muslim Community Clinic was in many respects representative of many other Muslim Clinics across the country, as the survey demonstrates.
