Youth Pathways Committee
The Youth Pathways committee exists to expose Chicagoland youth to diverse career opportunities in healthcare, to connect youth with training, mentorship, and internship programs, and to increase equitable access to such opportunities for all youth. The committee also serves as a community of practice for youth workforce development practitioners, and seeks to align partners across the youth career awareness ecosystem. Since inception in 2021, the group has built a directory of youth programs, hosted several virtual events for college and high school students, and is currently running a campaign to bring more healthcare professional guest speakers into classrooms to motivate students to pursue career pathways in health. Support our campaign with the marketing materials in our toolkit.
