At Rio Americano High School, dozens of students like sophomores Liliana Lettini and Derek Gale are training to get certified as medical students upon graduation.
It’s programs like these that U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra said are preparing young people for jobs in health care.
“We want in if you’re going to start giving young folks, before they graduate from high school, a sense of leadership, a sense of belonging, a sense of worth and professionalism,” he said. “We want it because we know that, in America, we’re lacking all those young professionals.”
