Information and Resources for Middle School Teachers

ATTAC Day of Service

The A.T.T.A.C. Day of Service has been conducted with great success for the past ten years by USF AHEC in partnership with the USF Colleges of Medicine and Nursing, the School of Physical Therapy, and the Florida A&M University School of Pharmacy.  With the support and assistance of our local school system, last year more than 4,000 health professions students taught over 25,000 middle school students in Hillsborough, Citrus, Hernando, Pasco, Pinellas, Charlotte, Desoto, Manatee and Sarasota counties.

This year, we once again ask for your support. Our health professions students are available to visit classrooms during both the fall and spring semesters.

Contact us today to indicate your interest in the program this year!
