SAN DIEGO COUNTY'S REGIONAL ALLIED HEALTH AND SCIENCE INITIATIVE (RAHSI)

Established 2006

RAHSI is a collaborative effort to improve students' success in healthcare careers.

The project is supported by the Governor of California's Career-Technical Education (CTE) Initiative and the
Grossmont-Cuyamaca Community College District.

	WHAT WE DO / MISSION The Regional Allied Health and Science Initiative (RAHSI) supports the building and implementation of middle and high school Health Career Pathway programs in San Diego County, with a focus on: Curricula Industry partnerships Career exploration activities Program and professional development Countywide collaboration Comprehensive site teams VISION Students that complete a RAHSI Health Career Pathway course sequence will be prepared to pursue any health training program of their choice, from technician to physician. RAHSI preparation is intended for students of all academic levels and backgrounds.		OUR GOALS Increase middle and high school students’ awareness of health career opportunities Improve performance in high school and college science courses Improve transition and retention rates in college programs VALUES The RAHSI network is committed to: Service Problem Solving Collaboration RAHSI was founded because: Without the critical element of succeeding in college science coursework, a student will be limited to entry-level healthcare careers and cannot proceed to higher career ladders A single course or activity is not enough to ensure success in “gatekeeper” college science coursework
