2 SSTRIDE-ING FOR DIVERSITY A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH Watch Video

3 IN THE BEGINNING THERE WAS the P I M S

4 Funded by a National Institutes of Health grant, PIMS was designed to address the need for physicians in the rural areas of Northwest Florida. (Part of the University of Florida College of Medicine)

5 1992-Dr. Myra Hurt established the first advising program services at PIMS Dr. Hurt hired Mrs. Thesla Anderson to establish an Outreach program Dr. Hurt hired Dr. Livingston to supervise both advising and outreach-- -soon they are combined into one program The Florida State University College of Medicine admitted its first class Outreach and Advising continued Bridge Program was established

6 The Florida State University College of Medicine will educate and develop exemplary physician who practice patient-centered health care, discover and advance knowledge, and are responsive to community needs, especially through service to elder, rural, minority, and underserved populations.

7 Research has shown minority physicians and physicians from rural backgrounds are more likely to practice in underserved population areas.

8 The following groups should be represented in the student population: o o o o o Underrepresented Minorities (African American, Puerto Rican, Mexican American, American Indian) Students from Rural or Inner City Backgrounds Nontraditional (older, returning) Students Students from Disadvantaged Backgrounds First generation in college students

9 Medically underserved population areas are often educationally underserved Students may not have had the educational background and structured programs to reach their full potential Students from disadvantaged backgrounds may need encouragement and opportunity And then there are the numbers: In 2009 there were 42,269 applicants nationally 3,106 African Americans; 3,061 Hispanic or Latino; 1,684 Rural 3,584 Applicants to FSUCOM in 2010 (120 selected) 465 African Americans; 537 Hispanic; 143 Rural

11 Institution Outreach Support Type of Services Xavier University (High school level) Across Critical Thinking (ACT) Center of Excellence Scholar Program Seek to promote critical thinking about vital issues from an interdisciplinary perspective Designed to educate and train African American students in research methods and participate in basic clinical research Biomedical Scholars Program Opportunities for high ability students to complete first semester of chemistry Wayne State University High School Partnership Program Project SEED (Summer Educational Experience for Disadvantage Students) Provide interventions and support to teachers Selected high school students engage in research projects under the direction of WSU faculty.

12 Launched in 1991 Designed to increase annual enrollment of Blacks, Mexican American, mainland Puerto Ricans and American Indians in U.S. Medical Schools Initiative focused on educational pipeline programs

13 The need for a new and creative way to increase diversity in our medical school Intervention has to occur early in the educational pipeline Partnership agreements with universities, secondary schools, and medical schools have to exist Infrastructure of support Commitment all stakeholders Diverse and meaningful experiences for students

14 Provide a career pathway for students who have been traditionally underrepresented in medicine and other health fields Increase the number of underrepresented and rural high school students who enter post graduate science and medical programs. Ultimately serve as a pipeline or feeder program to bring students from medically underserved areas to FSUCOM thus producing physicians that have an interest in Florida rural and inner city communities.
