NH students are invited to apply for the New England Public Health Training Center (NEPHTC) Health Equity Stipend program. The Health Equity Stipend program aims to provide training and equip students with the experience to improve sub-population health outcomes throughout their professional careers.
The program’s intended impact on disparity is two-fold: it will increase placement opportunities for students who are underrepresented minorities or come from disadvantaged backgrounds. Additionally, the program will offer tailored projects and capacity building for all participants to increase their confidence and competencies to work with diverse communities.
What is the Health Equity Stipend Program?
NEPHTC Health Equity Stipend Program provides stipends to 27 students per year for field placements and faculty-student collaborative projects throughout New England. To qualify, students must be graduate or doctoral students pursuing a degree in a health profession, or a 3rd or 4th-year undergraduate student pursuing a public health degree, and work with a public health or nonprofit agency supporting underserved areas and populations.
