Avenue M

The AvenueM Program represents the Greater Northern California Regional Hub for Healthcare Opportunity (RHHO) which is part of the state-wide California Medicine Scholars Programs (CMSP) network of RHHOs, administered by the Foundation for California Community Colleges. 

AvenueM focuses on increasing diverse physicians from community colleges to serve Northern California, particularly medically underserved communities. Part of this focus is recruiting a diverse group of mission-focused students.

Mission-focused categories include:

• Economically, socially and/or educationally disadvantaged background

• English as a second language

• First-Generation

• Veteran

• Ties to the Northern California Region (e.g., attended high school in the region, place of birth, and/or parents’ residence, and/or applicant’s residence)

These mission-focused categories are considered as part of the selection process.
