NEXT STEPS FOR ROTARYS ADVENTURES IN HEALTH CARE ALUMNI
While Northern Health’s recent announcement introduced the Seek, Experience, Explore, Discover (SEED) program as a new collaboration with SD57, CNC, UNBC, and Northern Health teams, the concept was first explored during Rotary’s Adventures in Health Care in May 2025. Feedback from fifty students who took part helped shape SEED’s design and focus.
Interest in the inaugural program has been overwhelming, with applications exceeding available spaces. Adventures in Health Care alumni are receiving priority consideration, though participation in that program is not required.
