Poster contest announced. Our homegrown campaign "Healthcare4MeInTheIE" is raising awareness about studying, living and serving as a healthcare professional in the Inland Empire. The campaign began as a series of videos featuring local health pathway students whowant to serve their communities. The second phase of the campaign is a poster contest sponsored by Azusa Pacific University School of Nursing. The call for abstracts is out now and we have supplied instructions as well as judges criteria for the contest. The contest will include monetary awards as well as other prizes. We hope you will join this movement to fill the healthcare gap in the Inland Empire region.
 2016 Health Professions seeks sponsorships. We are excited to announce the Health Professions conference on Thursday, March 17, 2016 for 500 young men and women of high school age studying for a career in healthcare. This free conference offers students opportunities to learn more about various health professions, college preparation and resources to successfully achieve their dreams. All of this is made possible by volunteers, sponsors, and health professionals who donate their time. We need to raise $25,000 and you can help! We have provided a sponsorship letter for your agency or organization asking for your support. To see highlights from 2015 HP Conference visit our website.
