Health Career Connection

“I learned a lot about public health programming. I had also done FPL as a participant so it was very full-circle for me to come back as a facilitator ”

“The support Health Career Connection (HCC) provides to its interns. We had lots of workshops on various topics from skill-building workshops on excel to life and career planning to COVID-19 mitigation strategies in health. They really try to match their interns with an organization that fits your interest. I was matched with Bay Area PLAN and was given a lot of leeway and independence to run my own projects, while still receiving lots of support, which I liked. We also switched to a remote version due to COVID-19 and they made it work really well.”
