Eastern Illinois University has been awarded $44,500 in co-operative work-study grants from the Illinois Board of Higher Education (IBHE) to provide compensation to students in health internships in rural counties across East Central Illinois. With support from the grant, EIU is able to place 10 students with partner organizations serving Clark, Coles, Crawford, Cumberland, Douglas, Edgar, Jasper, Lawrence, Richland and Wabash Counties as interns assisting in meeting those communities’ local rural health needs. The program provides compensatory support for EIU’s student interns, who work in those communities as they complete degree requirements and prepare to enter the workforce.
