This presentation explores the profound impacts of Hurricane Ike on Galveston’s community, focusing on recovery and resilience through a service-learning initiative. The assessment revealed significant community health needs, and a collaborative health fair event was organized to provide screenings and educational resources to parishioners. Nursing and health professions students engaged in this interprofessional activity, which served over 150 individuals and fostered community healing. The project highlights the importance of understanding and addressing mental, physical, and spiritual recovery post-disaster.
