Once a year, we help support CHAMP (Career Help and Mentorship Program).

"Arsenal Middle School serves some of the city’s most under-resourced youth and is a regional ESL center for Pittsburgh Public Schools. In response to the 2019 Pittsburgh Equity Report, CHAMP was launched in Spring 2020. Since then, we have developed a strong partnership between Arsenal, CHP, and Pitt Medical students to promote career exploration and strengthen the pipeline into medicine and higher education."
