Dear FACES Alumni, don’t miss this great opportunity with one of our partners, Health Career Connection (HCC). FACES actually hires HCC interns during the summer and are always looking to continue the pipeline through our partnership.
Our own Project Coordinator, Angela Thai, has been an HCC intern. Hear what she has to say about it:
“My experience with Health Career Connection gave me a new perspective on the Public Health field. Everything I had been learning in my textbooks, from educational disparities to social determinants of health, was brought to life. With this, I learned about the impact I was capable of making in my own hometown community of Oakland, CA – and that’s something I’ll keep with me forever.”
Below are more details on the internship and how to apply:
