January 24 — “Caring About Our Communities”
Three teenage boys growing up on the tough inner-city streets of Newark made a pact: They would stick together, go to college, graduate and become doctors. Now, years later, “The Three Doctors” come to Indianapoilis to discuss health and education for youth and families.
When: Thursday January 24, 7:30 PM
Where: Clowes Memorial Hall of Butler University 4602 Sunset Ave. Indianapolis 46208 [parking info]
The Three Doctors (Sampson Davis, Rameck Hunt and George Jenkins) will give an address called “Caring About Our Communities” as part of the Butler University Celebration of Diversity Distinguished Lecture Series. The lecture is free and open to the public. A ticket is required for admission. Tickets may be obtained at the Clowes Hall box office, (317) 940-6444.
Drs. Davis, Hunt and Jenkins, fondly known as The Three Doctors, serve as an extraordinary model of leadership for anyone who’s been through any kind of life challenge or major hardship.
Today, Dr. Hunt is a Board certified internist at University Medical Center at Princeton and Assistant Professor of Medicine at Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. Dr. Jenkins serves as Assistant Professor of Clinical Dentistry at Columbia University. Dr. Davis is a Board Certified Emergency Medicine Physician at St. Michaels Medical Center and Raritan Bay Medical Center. Davis is also consultant for the Violence Prevention Institute focusing on gang awareness and preventative medicine in Essex County. The doctors have additionally authored several inspiring books about their lives: The Pact for adults; We Beat the Streets for children; and The Bond, highlighting fatherhood relationships will be released in 2007.
