For many, spring break is right around the corner. It's that time of year to finalize summer plans, take a much needed vacation or staycation, and/or enjoy the warm weather outside. Take a trip up to Mount Diablo, the East Bay Regional Parks System, or your local city parks for some self-care and winter reflection.
As you take it all in and plan ahead, Primary Care CORPS has you covered with a number of opportunities you don't want to miss this March. Be sure to check out:
- internships/job placements at health clinics across the East Bay
- resume and interview support at the Mayor's Jobs and Resources Fair
- webinar on the status of nursing and primary care workforce
- deadlines for scholarships and leadership programs
