STEM Trip
Proceeds from the HHTCC are utilized to host the annual Hispanic Healthcare and Technology Careers Conference, to organize STEM discovery events, and to send students to professional development opportunities. Last year students attended a STEM Trip to Marrieta, Georgia to visit Life University.
The location for next year’s leadership trip is Las Vegas, Nevada. Students will apply to participate in the Latino Youth Leadership Conference during the month of July. More information will be released during the conference registration period in March.
"It made me overthink what’s going on in my area. Ask myself, how I could help out my community?"
— Brandon Aguilera, UnidosUS student
