Why Mentor? 

Your community and state gain significant benefits when you take the time to mentor a student. An important part of the Urban Health Program Mission is to improve the educational experience of every UIC underrepresented student. Effective mentoring begins with mentors who have experienced individual programs and UIC itself, and can provide advice and guidance. Talking regularly about research, coursework, and exploring future job opportunities are hallmarks of a good mentoring program.

If you would like to mentor a UIC Urban Health Program Student, please fill out the mentoring application and mail or e-mail it back to the Coordinator for Alumni Relations for the Urban Health Program, Tara Alcazar, at Talcaz2@uic.edu
