This involves comprehensive training and education for workers living in our community, which helps to adapt and improve skills that enable them to participate in a changing healthcare workplace. About half the students are union members and half from the general community, including laid-off workers and those receiving public assistance. Career pathways include nursing, behavioral health, allied health, childcare, and health IT. Education services include GED classes and testing as well as ESL and safety instruction. TEACH High School Mentorship: Our Technical Education and Careers in Healthcare (TEACH) collaborative with the Philadelphia School District provides paid internships for high school seniors.

We provide on the job training and help develop resume and interview skills. After completing their first semester, interns have an option to return for a second semester with a goal of employment upon graduation. Teen Research Internship Program (TRIP): Fox Chase Cancer Center (FCCC) recognizes that building a strong future workforce in science and medicine begins with giving motivated high school students meaningful early exposure to research. Through the Teen Research Internship Program, FCCC provides a free, hands-on learning experience for students from Philadelphia and surrounding communities, combining hypothesis-driven laboratory research with mentoring from Fox Chase faculty and staff. The program strengthens participants' skills in experimental design, data analysis, critical thinking, communication, and resilience, while also introducing them to a wide range of careers across science, research, and healthcare and helping them see themselves as part of the next generation of scientific leaders.
