Our Advisory is a distinguished group of professionals and students representing healthcare, education, business, and non-profit organizations across the San Joaquin Valley of California. Their purpose is to help ensure the relevance of the ROAD Conference for students across the San Joaquin Valley. They do this by lending their expertise and time to discuss current trends and identify needs among pre-health/pre-med/public health college students, as well as the review of conference session proposals. Together, they provide support and exposure to the ROAD Conference through their professional networks.
