Our Mission Statement

• To help train professionals that know how to conduct balanced lives and work with each other in a cooperative rather than competitive manner
• To contribute to social justice by training a diverse population of participants so that the pool of healthcare providers better matches the pool of patients, thus lessening the access, treatment and outcome disparities that plague our healthcare system
• To further contribute to social justice by providing socioeconomically disadvantaged participants a career path that provides them and their families with greater socioeconomic resources
