“My future would no longer be determined by socioeconomic obstacles thanks to JAMP. I would not be who I am and where I am today without the support I received from this program.

Lucero Grimaldo

“As a first generation Mexican-American student, my path to medicine has not been easy. Being the first in my family to attend college and purse medical school came with a lot of challenges. I have spent a good amount of life scared, confused, and lost. Throughout it all, I have remained motivated and passionate in hopes of one day making medicine a better place for everyone. JAMP has been the helping hand I needed. They help me make my lifelong dream of becoming a physician a reality.”
