SBLI Exposes Youth to Health Professions = Diverse Health Leaders
The Spring Branch Leadership Institute is supported by the Spring Branch Community Health Center a nonprofit 501 (c) corporation that has been designated as a Federally Qualified Health Center(FQHC). The health center understands that our healthcare system lacks diversity among health professionals. A workforce of providers that lack cultural competencies to serve the community creates a challenge and negatively impacts patient outcomes. Through this summer camp, youth participants from diverse backgrounds and cultures will be encouraged to explore health professions. This experience will provide them with the necessary education and tools to help them choose the right pathway for these careers in the health industry.
Program Description
The program's ultimate goal is to inspire future health leaders. SBLI will provide a week-long summer camp for high school students enrolled in the Spring Branch Independent School District. By providing this experience, students have an opportunity to enjoy hands-on activities and interaction with health professionals.
Healthy Families. Healthy Community.
SBLI has affiliated with Spring Branch Community Health Center a nonprofit community health center in the Greater West Houston Community.
