In May 2026, the Global Health Academy team visited Chiricahua Community Health Centers in Cochise County, Arizona, to explore its potential as a domestic global health elective site. The visit highlighted the region’s unique border health dynamics, strong community-based care model, and opportunities for binational training. The team was inspired by CCHCI’s impact and the potential for meaningful, community-engaged education.
