What is JUMP?
Junior Upcoming Medical Professionals (JUMP) is a HOSA-Future Health Professionals membership category for middle school students, grades 6-8th. JUMP is designed to act as a stepping stone for further beginnings into a career in the health care industry. This is an organization that allows students the opportunity to learn about the healthcare field while developing leadership skills. The JUMP chapter works closely with the local high school Cal-HOSA chapter.
HOSA-Future Health Professionals provides a unique program that helps the individual student through the development of leadership skills, physical, mental and social enhancement, job preparation, employment, self worth, motivation and empowerment.
JUMP members have the opportunity to participate in career exploration through guest speakers, field trips and middle/high school mentorship. Through chapter management, including fund-raising and community service, JUMP students learn team work strategies, leadership values, and positive work ethic.
