With the aging of our population and continued medical advances, the demand for healthcare and career opportunities in the field will increase dramatically. As the demand increases, so will the need for well-trained, motivated leaders who are committed and capable of delivering innovative healthcare solutions.

There are many ways that a person or organization can support the mission and goals of Health Career Connection. However, currently the three most prominent methods of support are:

• Hosting and Sponsoring an Intern – Numerous Hospitals, Medical Groups, Health Plans and Clinics have hosted and sponsored HCC Interns. Interns are bright and often have sound writing, analytical, problem solving and computer skills. Interns have contributed to a variety of important strategic, operational, financial and research initiatives in a wide range of functional areas within healthcare organizations. Some Interns have also filled vacant positions as part of their learning experience. Interns offer a fresh perspective and ideas.
• Sponsoring an Intern - By providing a financial stipend your organization can give the opportunity for a college student to participate in a paid summer internship. Typically, the sponsoring organization is also the Host organization thereby gaining a valuable summer resource while giving a talented student the invaluable training and exposure to pursue a successful career in Healthcare. However, some organizations, such as inner city health clinics, simply do not have the financial resources to sponsor an intern, yet they posses the need and ability to host a paid summer intern. In these cases HCC is actively searching for a sponsoring organization or foundation.
• HCC Financial Advocates - By providing HCC with tax deductible financial support (Discretionary Grant, Stipend or Donation) you can assist in realizing the vision of a diverse, talented workforce in the Healthcare Industry. Contact HCC for further information.
