Their studentmembers consist of middle and high school student.• The primary goal of the JOAG HOSA Workgroup is to develop a mentoring programbetween junior officers and HOSA student members. Once HOSA’s needs are identified,the workgroup is planning to recruit junior officers to provide some “big picture”professional mentoring to HOSA members. Participating junior officers will provideinsight to HOSA members on their individual professional discipline by visiting HOSAstate and local chapters and presenting on their day-to-day role in that particulardiscipline (rather than their role as a Commissioned Corps Officer). As part of thisinitiative, the workgroup would like to create a matrix to track HOSA contact and
aseline awareness of the USPHS. We also would like to look back in 7-10 years to seehow many newly commissioned officers have ties to HOSA and how those numberscorrelate to this initiative.• The call for nominations for members was sent to the listserv last month. LT Schaffzinreceived over 11 interested applicants, but unfortunately the workgroup was only ableaccept five members. The workgroup members were selected based on previousmentoring experience and geographical diversity.• Members: LCDR Timothy Thomas, LT Alexis Beyer, LT Stephanie Glenn, LT WadeIvy, and LT Skip Payne• The workgroup held its first meeting on 03 December 2009.• Items discussed on the call:o History of USPHS/HOSA Relationshipo Mission/Goals of the Workgroupo Mentoring Modelso Charter Development• Deliverables and next steps:o Develop charter (Dec 2009)o Draft criteria for junior officer participation (Jan 2010)o Create a JOAG HOSA presentation template for junior officers (February 2010)o Consider tracking mechanisms for the initiative (TBD)Financial LiaisonLCDR Alex Dailey• The current amount that COF received from JOAG is $2,043.93.
