Our inaugural Multilingual Clinical Learning Collaborative (MCLC) cohort program is officially underway! ✨
Last Saturday, Dr. Arizmendi and Dr. Zapien-Hidalgo welcomed the inaugural cohort of 25 remarkable students to the Multilingual Clinical Learning Collaborative (MCLC), a first-of-its-kind collaboration between the University of Arizona College of Science @uazscience and College of Medicine @uazmedtucson ! 🧠
Our cohort brings together students from across clinical disciplines, each carrying unique lived experiences, languages, cultural backgrounds, and a shared commitment to better serving our communities. 🫶🏽
During our first gathering, we reflected on the experiences and motivations that brought us together. What stood out was how many students recognized gaps in their own training and experiences, and their commitment to seeking opportunities to learn, ask questions, and grow beyond what their individual curriculums currently offer.
That willingness to recognize what we don’t yet know, and to learn alongside others who bring different perspectives and expertise, is exactly the kind of community we hope to build through MCLC. Our goal is to create a space for meaningful interdisciplinary collaboration, where students can challenge assumptions, learn from one another, and build a lasting network of culturally responsive providers who carry this work into their future professions. 💙
This community extends beyond our cohort! 📣 Our upcoming MCLC workshops are OPEN TO ALL, and we’d love for you to join us!
🗓️ October 24 | 1:00–2:30 PM 🗓️ November 7 | 12:30–2:00 PM
