Health
Professions in Geriatrics
Program:
The Health Professions in Geriatrics
Program was developed to help meet the
goals of the Bureau of Health Professions'
Kids
Into Health Careers
initiative. RIGEC works in partnership
with high school teachers and
youth-oriented academic/talent development
programs to encourage career interest in
the health professions, specifically
working with older adults, among
economically disadvantaged and minority
high school students. Read about our first
Health Professions in Geriatrics project,
