Goal: the goal of the detroit TRI-county social work health career opportunity academy is to prepare 475 current and future allied health and social work professionals to provide culturally responsive health care in the detroit TRI-county area by august 31, 2028.

Implementation: our team will accomplish program objectives by providing students and community partners with training opportunities. We will collaborate with existing community partners to recruit community college and university students into our structured and unstructured programs. We developed the programs based on our experience with prior hrsa funding, information from our interdisciplinary consulting team, and existing research on improving the recruitment, matriculation, retention, and graduation rates of students from disadvantaged backgrounds. Therefore, our programs provide educational, economic, and social support as well as education on research, health disparities, social determinants of health, and health equity. An interdisciplinary consulting team will support interpreting findings from continuous quality improvement efforts to inform program revisions. Funding preference eligibility: our comprehensive program of three community colleges and one university seeks to coordinate educational services in the detroit TRI-county area. We plan to develop culturally competent individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds, which will help create a competitive applicant pool of individuals seeking healthcare career opportunities. Our goal and objectives align with hrsa strategic plan, goal 3.2, to improve the supply, geographic distribution, and diversity of the health workforce.
