Abstract
This report contains four chapters wherein I record my internship experiences as a full-time, paid Community HealthCorps VISTA (Volunteer in Service to America) at the Southeast Health Center. As a VISTA, I expanded and ensured the clinic’s capacity to provide quality care to the medically underserved population of Bayview Hunter’s Point in San Francisco, California. In Chapter 1, I describe the organizations that sponsored my employment and the nature of my role and VISTA duties. In Chapter 2, I review major projects that I worked on from April 20 to September 15, 2009, the timeframe set aside for my Master of Technical and Scientific Communication internship. In Chapter 3, I describe one major project in detail, the i2iTracks training sessions and tutorials, and I reflect on my internship experiences in Chapter 4.
