Description
Rowan-Virtua School of Osteopathic Medicine Health Careers Opportunity Program provides six pathway programs for students from under-resourced backgrounds. Many HCOP participants are first generation college students who have limited exposure to health careers or to professional networks. They often face obstacles in their personal lives that hinder their ability to solely focus on their career aspirations. Students cannot thrive academically or professionally if they are not doing well personally. Therefore, the HCOP team utilizes intrusive advising to foster meaningful relationships with students that enables them to provide holistic support throughout their participation in the programs. This session explores intrusive advising as a methodology and why community matters for first gen students pursuing health professions.
