The numbers are great, but the impact is even better.

Since 2019, over 1,170 students have walked through our doors (and virtual classrooms) to level up their careers with HEC’s specialized training and certifications. That’s 1,170+ advocates, interpreters, and healthcare professionals equipped to step out and change the game for community health.

When we invest in students, we invest in healthier communities. Let’s keep growing!

Last week, HEC was on Capitol Hill meeting with lawmakers to secure crucial funding and champion the programs that keep our community thriving.

Sustainable funding isn’t just a budget goal, it’s the backbone of accessible resources, education, and long-term impact. Grateful for the opportunity to share our work and drive meaningful support forward.
Thank you to Joe Courtney and team for meeting with us.
Thank you also to the National AHEC Organization for organizing the entire event.
