Bring prevention to your campus.
Interested in podiatry, another health profession, or community service? Connect with Acro Health to explore student involvement in our preventive-health mission.
An interest inquiry does not enroll you, require payment or establish a campus chapter.
Future health professionals. Community-minded students.
You do not need to be on a pre-med track to care about prevention.
Exploring podiatry
Interested in a future in foot and ankle health? Tell us about your interest in podiatry and preventive-health education.
Prehealth & allied health
Students exploring medicine, nursing, public health and other health professions can ask about nonclinical involvement.
Any major, shared purpose
Bring an interest in education, communication, community service or nonprofit work. We welcome inquiries from students across disciplines.
Support the mission, without confusing membership with credentials.
Acro Health’s existing annual supporter membership starts at $50 and includes a printed certificate, an Acro Health lapel pin and program updates. Students interested in this existing option can review the full membership levels and terms.
A separate student tier or reduced student dues has not been established. Asking about student involvement does not require a membership payment.
What membership does not mean
Membership is not insurance, a discount plan, a clinical benefit, a professional qualification or a school credential. It does not change how patients are seen at our clinic.
There is no promise of shadowing, patient contact, clinical work, internships, certification, course credit, CME or admissions advantages.
Start with interest. Build with approval.
Interested in connecting students at your school around prevention? Let’s explore whether a student-led group could be a good fit.
Tell us about your campus
Use our Contact page and select Other. Share your school and whether you are interested in joining or helping organize. Please do not include patient information or student records.
Find student leadership
A potential chapter needs committed student leaders, Acro approval and the school’s own recognition process. A faculty or staff advisor may be required. An existing campus organization may also be a better starting point.
Confirm before launching
Do not present a group as an approved Acro chapter or recognized campus organization before the relevant written approvals. Events, fundraising, finances and branding must follow school and Acro requirements.
A local idea with room to grow.
We welcome interest from students at UTSA, the University of the Incarnate Word, Trinity University and Alamo Colleges, including Northwest Vista, San Antonio College, Palo Alto, St. Philip’s and Northeast Lakeview.
These schools are prospective student audiences, not announced partners or approved chapter locations. Each campus controls its own recognition process and use of its name and logos.
What could students help explore?
Possible future nonclinical activities include prevention-awareness projects using reviewed resources, education planning and conference or event support. Opportunities depend on approval, capacity and any required training; no role or placement is guaranteed.
