Hearts for the Homeless International Inc.

Hearts for the Homeless International Inc. is a nonprofit founded at the University of Central Florida in 2015. From its Orlando roots, the organization brings preventive health education and clinical outreach into communities where access to care can be difficult, including people experiencing homelessness and other vulnerable populations.

Its no-cost screening opportunities, led by medical professionals and volunteers, include blood pressure and cardiovascular checks, basic oral-health and vision screenings, diabetes education, nutrition guidance, and information about healthy habits. The organization also creates hands-on outreach opportunities for medical and pre-medical students while connecting people with local healthcare resources and follow-up support.

People seeking homelessness-related assistance can explore Florida homeless assistance resources and federal assistance resources. Visit the official Hearts for the Homeless International website to learn more and confirm current program details.
