The Della Keats Program had a great summer with the 10 students from around the state. During this time they prepared for college, explored health careers, job shadowed health professionals, volunteered, and made lasting friendships. We hope they succeed in their pursuits, and perhaps we will see them as Della Keats II research students next year.
