“We invite you to join National Health Corps San Francisco for our Member Question & Answer Session led by some of our program's current members to get a better idea of what their experiences are and what it's like serving as an AmeriCorps member in our Public Health Leadership Corps program!”

“If you're interested in this field, it's crucial to engage directly with the population you will be serving to understand their needs.”

“Many future healthcare providers gain invaluable experience through programs like NHC, AmeriCorps, and NHSC. These programs also provide financial support and professional development opportunities for those pursuing medical school or other healthcare careers. The sky is the limit when you apply yourself to programs like ours!”

“Working within PSH has been both challenging and incredibly rewarding. The complexity of residents' needs and their resilience inspires me every day. By providing individualized care, I hope to contribute to a system that empowers people to reclaim their health, housing, and sense of agency.”

“The system expects our patients to be engaged in care, yet it does not always take into account their overall goals or wishes. Palliative Care has further emphasized and taught me the importance of patient autonomy when it comes to their care.”
