“This program helps lower a barrier to entry into healthcare,” says Program Director, Emily Frank. “These opportunities for valuable, paid work experience in the healthcare field not only serve to prepare graduates for more advanced training and education, but they also help bridge the gap for the many young people who need to earn income before entering a 4-year college or university.”? https://lnkd.in/gQM5NAyH #AnchorMission #HealthcareWorkforce #WorkforceDevelopment #YouthDevelopment #Healthcare
