CAL-SEARCH

Spread the Word!  California’s Student and Resident Experiences and Rotations in Community Health (Cal-SEARCH) is seeking to fill its remaining rotation slots with students and residents that are underrepresented, bilingual, and/or come from a disadvantaged background.  Cal-SEARCH is continuing to accept student, resident, and site applications through June 2012.  Cal-SEARCH is a great opportunity for students and residents to get exposure to community clinics and health centers in Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSAs) and Medically Underserved Areas (MUAs) and to work with Medically Underserved Populations (MUPs).  

Informational webinar will be held to answer questions about the program requirements and application process.  The webinar is free.  

June 30, 2012                  - - - -              DEADLINE for applications

A crazy idea, perhaps, but here goes...

Gentlepersons--My very best to all of you!
