Programs

Creative solutions that uplift lives

We respond to community needs with programs that are thoughtful, flexible, and rooted in real life.

From education pathways to healing spaces, these initiatives are designed to support well-being in ways that extend beyond clinical care.

Programs like Escalera and Avanzando will continue to guide students through college preparation and life on campus, while AltaMed Scholars provides hands-on learning for first-generation medical students. At the same time, continued investment in the AltaMed Art Collection will directly support classes, workshops, and expanded community programming - using art as a tool for comfort, connection, and healing.

Together, these programs will open doors to opportunity, nurture future providers, and create care environments where patients feel seen and valued.

Inside Our Programs

Imagining a Healthy Future: Community Art Helps AltaMed Patients Envision Wellness and Healing Through Creativity

Through PoderArte workshops, AltaMed brought artists, students, and residents together to imagine healthier neighborhoods. Participants used poetry, songwriting, and visual art to share stories, build connection, and celebrate creativity as part of whole-person wellness.
