What is emphasized during the Washington Leadership Academy in September?

The emphasis during the Washington Leadership Academy is on teambuilding, public relations, networking with health professionals, and promoting HOSA to Congress. This initiative is designed to enhance leadership skills among HOSA members, allowing them to effectively advocate for health science education and the importance of the organization.

Participants engage in hands-on activities and discussions that help them understand the value of networking and collaborating with both peers and professionals in the healthcare field. Additionally, the focus on promoting HOSA to Congress is crucial, as it allows members to learn how to represent their organization on a national stage, emphasizing advocacy skills essential for future leaders in health professions. This comprehensive approach not only equips participants with valuable skills but also fosters a sense of community and collaboration among future health leaders.
