Working as a CARE Ambassador will foster new learning experiences including hosting virtual events, in-person tabling, and more depending on your capacity. CARE Ambassadors will also have the opportunity to gain skills in community outreach, data management, research, ethics, and team collaboration.

"I learned a lot too from my time here, I learned how to talk to people that have questions about the program and was able to craft a short concise but informational speech for whoever was wondering that CARE was with the help of other ambassadors."
