AHEC Partnership Story
 For
two years, Indiana AHEC Program and the Metropolitan
Indianapolis-Central Indiana AHEC have built a partnership with Crispus
Attucks Medical Magnet High School (CAMMHS) in Indianapolis to provide
enrichment activities designed to sustain and strengthen health careers
interest and academic achievement among the school’s primarily African
American students. Magnet Coordinator Marty Weyand 10th-grader Kenneth
Rush shared with the Annual Meeting audience the keys to early student
success at CAMMHS. With its first class now less than two years from
graduation, Weyand described how AHEC activities cultivate health
careers interest and intent among a student body that is taking one of
the most demanding curricula in Indiana, earning early college credit,
and preparing to meet a goal of 100% college attendance. |
