2026 Summer Intern

Department Details:

The Southern California Permanente Medical Group-s (SCPMG) Equity, Inclusion, and Diversity Department, housed within Quality & Systems of Care, is committed to advancing meaningful and measurable data-driven outcomes across care delivery, the workforce, and the communities we serve. We operate as a strategic partner and system-level advisor across 13 medical center service areas. Our work is organized across three foundational pillars:

Health Equity (including Social Health): We lead initiatives aimed at closing clinical disparity gaps, improving outcomes for historically marginalized populations, and ensuring that every patient receives person-centered, culturally responsive care. This includes advancing Social Health initiatives that address social drivers of health such as food, housing, transportation, and safety, ensuring members- non-clinical needs are identified and addressed as part of whole-person care.

Workforce Engagement: We support an engaged, diverse, and mission-driven workforce through programs that strengthen belonging, inclusive leadership, and professional development. Our team partners with stakeholders across Human Resources, People & Culture, physician leadership, and operations to embed inclusive principles into workforce strategy.

Community Engagement: We design and evaluate partnerships with community-based organizations, with a focus on building trust, addressing health-related social needs, and delivering sustainable community benefit. We co-create solutions with local partners that improve access, well-being, and long-term health outcomes.

Our department also stewards governance structures, performance dashboards, and strategic frameworks that align with enterprise accountabilities such as NCQA Health Equity Accreditation, Medi-Cal, Medicare Stars, The Joint Commission, and the broader Quality strategy.

Internship Projects:

The intern will contribute to high-impact initiatives across one or more of the department-s strategic pillars. Sample projects may include:

Health Equity & Social Health Analysis: Support analysis of clinical equity outcomes (e.g., diabetes, hypertension, childhood vaccinations) and contribute to synthesis of Social Health data related to food insecurity, transportation, or closed-loop referral performance. Intern may support presentation development for executive audiences.

Workforce Engagement Initiatives: Assist with the design and evaluation of engagement strategies for physicians and ambulatory staff, including tools for inclusive leadership, onboarding, or experience improvement. Intern may also support tracking and communications for workforce-centered programs such as Women in Medicine or the Physician Experience Assessment (PXA).

Community Engagement Reporting & Strategy: Partner with consultants to capture and evaluate the impact of community-based programs, including those addressing family violence prevention, youth pipeline efforts (e.g., Hippocrates Circle), and Social Health (e.g., Community Health Workers Pilot). Work may include landscape scans, qualitative summaries, and member/community-facing materials.

Strategic Planning & Special Projects: The intern may also be assigned special projects such as creating logic models, preparing briefing decks for regional meetings, or supporting internal evaluations of scorecard and goal alignment across the department.

All projects will be supported with mentorship from a regional consultant and include structured opportunities for feedback, reflection, and skill development. Intern deliverables will have visibility with leadership and may be included in enterprise-facing reports or presentations.
