Position Summary Information

Job Description Summary The Rural Health Pathways Coordinator 1 provides dedicated outreach, engagement services, and academic pathway support to rural pre-college students navigating healthcare academic tracks to facilitate college entry. Based in the Ontario, OR region and serving Eastern Oregon University's designated rural counties (Harney, Grant, Malheur, and Baker), this position collaborates closely with regional K-12 school districts to cultivate an academic and experiential pipeline for future healthcare professionals.

This role drives student recruitment by conducting localized school visits, managing dual-credit registration workflows, and organizing hands-on, large- scale healthcare preview events. By guiding students through foundational academic requirements and experiential opportunities, the Coordinator bridges the critical transition from high school into EOU's healthcare degree programs.

Taking a proactive, student-centered approach to community engagement, the Coordinator builds strong relationships with regional school districts, counselors, and educators. Through tailored outreach and direct student support, the Coordinator ensures that pre-college initiatives successfully inspire and prepare geographically isolated students for healthcare careers.

The Rural Health Pathways Coordinator is essential to advancing Eastern Oregon University's commitment to expanding educational access and supporting rural healthcare workforce development. By creating accessible pathways for local youth and strengthening university-school connections across the region, the Coordinator directly contributes to student enrollment, higher education access, and long-term regional health and vitality. This is a full-time, limited-duration position that is contingent upon continued grant funding.
