  • organizing and conducting summer Health Careers Camps; working collaboratively with groups and agencies to provide special programs and activities on health careers
  • participating on committees to work with communities on Health Fairs
  • assisting with coordination of exploring/shadowing health careers as available
  • serving on the Evaluation Team in the secondary Healthcare Science Technology Education (HSTE) Program Industry Certification Process
  • working with communities to identify other innovative ways to share information about health careers
