When CHE was first established, its main focus was to increase the number of Latino students entering medical School. While still pursuing that goal, CHE is now a statewide student organization dedicated to supporting its members in pursuing careers in the health field, while also promoting health education through outreach projects in the  Chicano/Latino community.       Our activities are diverse, including trips to conferences at  several medical schools, networking w/other orgs, mentorship programs, panel discussions by health professionals and students, and  more.      Hit up any of the board members for more information! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  CHE MISSION STATEMENT:      CHE was originally founded in 1973 as a result of an increased awareness and desire by students, the community, and the AAMC (American Association of Medical Colleges) to increase the number of Chicano/Latino students interested in pursuing careers in the health field. CHE continues this tradition by encouraging underrepresented students to pursue a graduate level education while also giving back to underserved communities. As a member, you can expect the organization to educate you on issues of medicine, culture, social and political issues, application processes and ultimately inspire YOU to become a sensitive and productive healer who will make a great impact on society.
