💡 “I now know what I want to do for my career.”
That’s the kind of impact we aim for—and this year’s Snohomish County ECHO Tour℠ delivered. Last week, we welcomed 273 attendees from 19 schools across Snohomish County to explore careers in health care through hands-on activities, real-world conversations, and one-on-one connections with local professionals.
✅ 90% of students said they left the event wanting to pursue a health care career
27 organizations contributed their time, space, and expertise
🎤 40 amazing presenters shared their knowledge, journeys, and encouragement
Student feedback says it all:
🩺 “Getting to hear the baby’s heartbeat with a stethoscope.”
📚 “Learning about the apprenticeship with Edmonds LPN.”
💬 “I got a lot of information about how to go forward in my career.”
💡 “I now know what I want to do for my career.”
❤️ “Just loved it!”
