Dear Rhode Island Medical Reserve Corps Members,
I wanted to take a moment to remind you of the exciting opportunity available through our Junior Medical Reserve Corps (JMRC) Program. If you have a young person aged 14-17 in your life who is interested in a career in the medical or behavioral health field, emergency response, or as a first responder, we invite them to join the JMRC!
The JMRC offers several benefits, including:
Mentorship: Members will have the unique opportunity to connect with and learn from seasoned professionals across various fields, including medicine, nursing, emergency response, and more. These mentors offer guidance, share their real-world experiences, and provide valuable career advice to help shape the future paths of our junior members.
Skills Development: Through hands-on activities and training sessions in our state-of-the-art facilities, JMRC members will learn critical skills that are directly applicable to medical and emergency response careers. Training includes first aid, CPR, disaster response, leadership, teamwork, and effective communication, all of which are essential for any future first responder or healthcare provider.
Scholarship Opportunities: The JMRC offers access to scholarship opportunities to support members¡¯ educational goals. These scholarships recognize dedication to community service, leadership potential, and a commitment to pursuing careers in health or emergency response fields.
Community Service Hours: Participation in the JMRC allows members to earn community service hours required for school. Members will engage in meaningful volunteer activities that not only fulfill academic requirements but also make a significant impact on the community.
This is a unique chance for youth to gain practical experience, develop essential skills, and network with professionals in their field of interest.
