NHSC Alumni
National Health Service Corps (NHSC) Alumni are essential to the continued success of the Corps in connecting dedicated primary care providers to the communities that need them. As former program participants who have experienced first-hand just how important the work we do is, we encourage you to remain involved with the Corps and continue to make extraordinary contributions to communities with limited access to care.
Over the last 40 years, more than 40,000 providers have participated in the program and been on the front lines for key public health events and significant changes to the health care system that affected and may continue to affect the way they practice medicine. Learn more
