The purpose of this day is to bring together students and faculty who manage student-run free clinic projects, to create a national community of free clinic leaders, and to learn from each other how best to create and manage these programs. Student-run free clinic projects help students and faculty in the health professions remain inspired while acquiring the skills to provide humanistic, empowering, transdisciplinary health care to those without access to care. Each participating school will share several slides and/or a poster or questions about their current or proposed clinic project. Workshops, co-facilitated by faculty, students, and community partners will address common issues, including starting a free clinic, integrative models, curricular components, administrative and legal issues, working with community partners, institutional support, funding your project, perils and pitfalls, roles, pragmatics of labs, social resources, continuity, quality assurance, specialty services, and ethical issues. Opportunities for future networking, collaboration, and yearly conferences will be explored.

Getting the Most Out of STFM’s Family Medicine Digital Resources Library: A Hands-on Demonstration
Richard Usatine, MD, FMDRL Editor-in-Chief
The purpose of this training session is to familiarize users with STFM’s Family Medicine Digital Resources Library (FMDRL), demonstrate the collaborative work areas available for STFM groups, and to explain opportunities for more involvement as reviewers and editors. FMDRL is an online library of educational materials submitted by teachers of family medicine addressing preclinical, clinical, predoctoral, residency, and faculty development curricula. In this session, we will: 1) Show individuals how to best take advantage of the benefits of FMDRL for education and promotion. Materials published on the FMDRL Web site can be cited on your CV as an electronic publication. 2) Discuss how interested individuals can become more involved with FMDRL through reviewing and editing resources. 3) Demonstrate additional functionality for collaboration that is now available for groups, including listserves and Web spaces. Your feedback to enhance FMDRL functionality will be welcome. This session will be held in the STFM Computer Cafe for direct Internet access to FMDRL.
