Posted By: Kennedy Williams on March 29, 2022 A new healthcare internship program will give 100 Black students hands-on experience and leadership skills to advance health equity in the medical workforce. The immersive paid internships will be organized by the Propel Center, a pioneering innovation and learning hub for historically Black colleges and universities; the Black Directors Health Equity Agenda (BDHEA), a consortium of senior healthcare leaders focused on eradicating health disparities that threaten Black families; and INROADS, a nonprofit career academy for under-represented youth. The Propel-BDHEA internships, announced March 17, are open to Black sophomore, junior, senior and graduate students considering medical and related healthcare careers, with applications due May 1. The internships will give them innovative work projects, research, academic coursework and career mentoring to prepare them for an inclusive experience. BDHEA aims to establish career mentoring relationships that will lead to full-time employment.
