We had the opportunity to partner with Indiana University Interprofessional Practice And Education Center and Indiana University Southeast nursing students learning about “Breaking the Cycle of Addiction”.

Students were able to hear from different panelist from their community about the struggles of people in addiction and listen to a member of the community who lived the experience.

Thank you to all who made this experience happen! This is the future of healthcare.

Sarah Basset is our next AHEC Spotlight! She is a third-year medical student at Indiana University.

"I think this program provides information that all individuals can carry forward into their careers whether they end up in a healthcare field or not. Participation allows another avenue to expand empathy and understanding for groups which you may not have much interaction with right now. Opportunities to participate in this type of program become rarer as you advance in your life and career, so it is worth it to take advantage of them as they are presented."- Sarah

South Central Indiana AHEC

A healthy Indiana requires health care professionals located in all areas of the state—from inner city neighborhoods to rural communities—available and prepared to educate citizens about health problems and issues and to provide quality service. Area Health Education Centers (AHECs) help to provide communities with this critical resource through four overarching goals.

Goal A: Health Careers Promotion, Preparation, and Diversity

Goal B: Community- Based Student Education and Clinical Training

Goal C: Professional Education, Support and Continuing Education
