The invitation is here! You’re invited to the 4th Annual CPASS Foundation STEMM Pathways to Health Equity Symposium: Educating the Future of Health, Building Bold Pathways from Campus to Career. Saturday, October 3, 2026. University of Chicago. Doors open at 8:15 AM.

The CPASS Foundation exists because pathways into healthcare and STEMM don’t open by themselves. They open when the people who can do something about it sit down together. We’d like you to be one of them.

Seats are limited. Join the waitlist: https://hubs.la/Q04rVdNl0

Thank you to our Sponsors: The Chicago Community Trust, National Medical Fellowship, and the American Medical Association.

CPASS Foundation is deeply saddened by the passing of Dr. Sharon Gates, Senior Director of Student Diversity and Community Engagement at Rush University.

We were fortunate to partner with Sharon through our Mini Medical School program, where her dedication to students and community left a lasting mark on everyone she touched. Her legacy of service and heart for students will continue to inspire us. Our thoughts are with her family, friends, and the entire Rush community during this difficult time.
