Description:

The purpose of this Golden LEAF grant is to support development of a Community Health Education Resource Center on the Rocky Mount campus of Edgecombe Community College. This facility not only will be the central location for 14 of the college’s 22 allied health programs and provide on-site clinical and simulated clinical opportunities for more students, but also will provide access to health information, screenings, and limited medical and dental treatments at the primary care and dental clinics to be housed on the first floor. The center will serve an eight county region. The additional opportunities created by the center will help reduce the training bottleneck for health professionals and will allow students to fill jobs in local communities.
