The goals of Corps Community Month,
formerly Corps Community Day encompass the following: increase
awareness of the National Health Service Corps (NHSC) to potential
applicants and the greater primary health community; create a sense
of community and connectedness among NHSC program participants,
alumni, partners and staff; and underscore the NHSC’s role in
bringing primary health care services to the nation’s neediest
communities. Current program participants, alumni, NHSC
Ambassadors, NHSC clinical sites, primary care organizations, and
professional associations plan events and report the details of
their events to BHW so that they can be added to a map of events.
In order to avoid duplication of effort, eliminate confusion
regarding allowable event dates, avoid data entry errors, and
implement a brief post-event satisfaction survey, BHW would like to
implement a standard form that event planners will use to report to
BHW. The fillable form will be available online.
