We are excited to announce Henry Ford Jackson Hospital (HFJH) in partnership with the Jackson Area Career Center (JACC) will be hosting our fourth annual HFJH Al Glick Healthcare Camp, free of cost to thirty (30) Jackson area students, currently in grades 6th - 9th. Our day camp will take place Monday, June 15th - Friday, June 19th, 2026. Our camp will provide students with an opportunity to learn about healthcare related careers, learn directly from our team of professionals, participate in hands on activities, and much more! We are currently in search of eight (8) Jackson area high school juniors or seniors, college students, or current HFJH GME Residents to volunteer as camp counselors during the week of camp.

Below are some of the healthcare careers you and the campers will have the opportunity to learn about:

Those interested in volunteering must be available for the Camp Counselor Orientation Friday, June 12th, 2026, 9:00am - 11:00am, as well as the entire week of camp Monday, June 15th - Friday, June 29th, 2026, 7:00am - 4:00pm. Each camp counselor will be assigned approximately three campers for the duration of the camp. The 2026 HFJH Al Glick Healthcare Camp will be held at Henry Ford Jackson Hospital and the Jackson area Career Center. Parents will have the option to drop their students off at the specified locations or at one of the two designated bus stops. Camp counselors will be assigned a bus stop location where they will be required to check campers in/out, ride the bus with the campers to and from Henry Ford Jackson Hospital, or the Jackson Area Career Center, then verify the camper’s parent/legal guardians valid photo I.D. each day before releasing them at the end of the day. HFJH will provide campers and camp counselors with a t-shirt, goodie bag, lunch, water, and snacks throughout the day.
