    <strong><em>David Hoffman is UMBC's Assistant Director of Student Life for Civic Agency.</em></strong><div><strong><br></strong></div>
    <div>Forbes' CivicNation Voice website has published the second in a series of blog posts I'm writing with leaders from the <a href="http://www.aascu.org/ADP/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">American Democracy Project</a>, <a href="https://www.naspa.org/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">NASPA</a>, and <a href="http://thedemocracycommitment.org/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">The Democracy Commitment</a>.

<Title>SHPEP--Summer Health Professions Education Program</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <strong><span><br></span></strong><h4>The Summer Health Professions Education Program (SHPEP) is a free summer enrichment program focused on improving access to information and resources for college students interested in the health professions. SHPEP’s goal is to strengthen the academic proficiency and career development of students underrepresented in the health professions and prepare them for a successful application and matriculation to health professions schools. These students include, but are not limited to, individuals who identify as African American/Black, American Indian and Alaska Native and Hispanic/Latino, and who are from communities of socioeconomic and educational disadvantage. SHPEP, formerly known as the Summer Medical and Dental Education Program (SMDEP), expanded in 2016 to include a broader array of health professions.</h4>
