About Us
Mission and Goals
HCC is a national non-profit that inspires and empowers undergraduate students, recent graduates, and HCC alumni, particularly those from first generation and low-income backgrounds, to choose and successfully pursue authentic healthcare and public health careers.
We achieve this by connecting talented future health professionals and leaders to real-world experience in all health sectors, exposure, mentoring, and networking.
Interns support priority projects and programs that optimize organizational performance, foster innovation, and drive growth. HCC’s ultimate aim is to improve the health of populations by motivating and developing greater numbers of value-driven, capable and diverse leaders and health professionals.
