Diversity in Healthcare Taskforce
In Summer 2020, we created the Penn State Diversity in Healthcare Conference which aims to educate undergraduate Pre-Health students about disparities in our healthcare system and how to resolve them. At the forefront of shaping future healthcare leaders, the Penn State Diversity in Healthcare Conference serves as an enlightening and empowering platform for undergraduate Pre-Health students.
