HCC Atlanta started with Emory University School of Medicine, with medical students serving as volunteer mentors. In an effort to expose high school students to more health career options and greater mentorship, the program expanded to welcome mentors from Emory’s Physician Assistant program, Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing, and Rollins School of Public Health.
