SECTION 127875-127885



127875.  The Legislature finds and declares that California has an
insufficient number of minority health professionals to meet the
health care needs in the state. Greater numbers of minority health

care, and to meet the state's needs for a more equitable geographic
distribution of professional health personnel resources.

Professions Career Opportunity Program designed to:
   (a) Increase the number of ethnic minorities in health
professional training.
   (b) Increase the number of minority health professionals
practicing in health manpower shortage areas in this area.



127885.  The office shall maintain a Health Professions Career
Opportunity Program that shall include, but not be limited to, all of
the following:
   (a) Producing and disseminating a series of publications aimed at
informing and motivating minority and disadvantaged students to
pursue health professional careers.
   (b) Conducting a conference series aimed at informing those
students of opportunities in health professional training and
mechanisms of successfully preparing to enter the training.
   (c) Providing support and technical assistance to health
professional schools and colleges as well as to student and community
organizations active in minority health professional development.
   (d) Conducting relevant manpower information and data analysis in
the field of minority and disadvantaged health professional
development.
   (e) Providing necessary consultation, recruitment, and counseling
through other means.
