Health Careers Program (HCP)

The Lowcountry AHEC Health Careers Program (formerly the Student Development & Diversity Program) works to increase the number of students entering the health professions in South Carolina. Emphasis is placed on underrepresented minority and disadvantaged students in order to address disparities in the health professions workforce.

The Health Careers Program (HCP) is designed to develop academically proficient and self-confident future health care professionals. Specific goals are to:

• Facilitate a coordinated, statewide approach for increasing the number and diversity of students entering the health professions pipeline in South Carolina
• Identify additional resources to support student programs in the state
• Develop an evidenced-based health care student recruitment and retention plan of activities
