Youth Programs
HEALTH CAREER PRESENTATIONS
GNAHEC works to inspire students from underserved backgrounds to pursue careers in the healthcare industry. Through our health career presentations, we help students look at a health career through multiple points of entry; showing them careers in the industry that do not require 8+ years of schooling. Our health careers presentation offers students an opportunity to explore a variety of healthcare occupations, encourages students to think about healthcare as a potential career path, and helps them establish short and long-term goals towards achieving that career. We are happy to provide the presentation to local high schools and youth programs at their request.
