Many organizations (medical, research, government) utilize this month to raise awareness about health disparities. The staff members at Mentoring in Medicine work hard all year round to eliminate health differences. Our mission is threefold: (1) to expose, educate and empower our students to become competitive health and science graduate school applicants, (2) to help diversify the biomedical workforce and (3) to promote healthy living in our communities. We feature year-round educational opportunities for learners that begin in elementary school and extend to careers. In 15 years, we have impacted nearly 60,000 students, parents and educators! Our work to save lives continues! Please join us!
