Dr. Autumn Dawn Galbreath, MD, MBA – Volunteer with UCE

Dr. Autumn Dawn Galbreath “As a physician in an urgent care setting, I have frequent opportunities to witness the impact of sexually transmitted diseases. I have had to deliver diagnoses of STDs to many, many people, and I have sat in exam rooms with countless patients over the years listening to them cry and ask “How did this happen to me?” Seeing this pain has spurred me to deliver the message of abstinence to those around me. So when I learned about UCE at a medical conference, I was immediately interested in its work in Africa. I had the opportunity to travel to Uganda in 2007 to volunteer with UCE, participating in workshops at a number of schools, and also working as a medical advisor to the UCE staff in the development of an educational manual for high school students. It has been a privilege to play a small part in the work of UCE, and I am excited to continue supporting this incredible organization.”
