NAU Center for Service and Volunteerism Awarded $2.1M to Build Public Health AmeriCorps. The money will support 50 AmeriCorps members to meet public health needs of local communities and help rebuild the nation’s public health sector. The project will help meet public health needs of local communities by providing surge capacity and support while also creating pathways to public health-related careers.
NAU’s College of Health and Human Services’ Public Health Program will provide paid internship opportunities for 50 students in their final semester of undergraduate coursework to increase public health capacity across the region, while helping to prepare the next generation of public health professionals.
