First-Ever Made for Medicine White Coat Ceremony

This past Sunday, 15 students, grades 6-7, celebrated completing the first phase of Made for Medicine with the program’s first White Coat Ceremony. Made for Medicine is designed to support and increase the number of African American or Black students with an interest in the field of medicine.

The program is divided into 3 phases all of which provide students with critical foundational knowledge, hands-on learning, job shadowing, internships, and much more. The goal of Made for Medicine is for participants to leave the program with solid preparation and commitment to pursuing a future career in medicine.

See below for a live recording of the ceremony, photos, and a video from the students reflecting on their time in the program.
