The School of Health Technology and Management’s Center for Community Engagement and Leadership Development (CCE) responds to needs in education, healthcare and social change by building relationships across Stony Brook University and the community. Its hallmark program, Health Careers Academic Readiness and Excellence (HCARE), is an educational program with a special emphasis on the allied health professions, delivered to 9th through 12th graders in the high-needs school districts of Amityville, Brentwood, William Floyd, and Wyandanch, and the Sovereign Unkechaug Nation. HCARE also incorporates academic skill development, SAT preparation, and college readiness in its curricula, and serves as a mechanism to deliver innovative programming designed by CCE faculty and staff. For its Converging Sciences panel presentation, the CCE will detail HCARE’s history, delivery model, and emphasis on relationship-building
From AIDS to Ebola: Lessons Learned and Unlearned: Lisa Diedrich, IIvan Arroyo, Rachel Kidman and Dario Gonzalez.
HIV/AIDs is a condition of particular relevance to marginalized and minority populations on Long Island and beyond. What can we learn from our decades long experience with HIV/AIDS to give us insight into the Ebola Epidemic? Research in this area highlights the intersections of race, gender, stigma, class, sexuality, and disability as well as regional disparities and challenges faced across the life span. The plenary panelists highlight historical and current examples of community engagement related to HIV/AIDS on Long Island and its relevance to HIV/AIDS and Ebola across the globe.
