The TRA Medical Imaging Foundation's Dr. William B. Jackson scholarship, which provides substantial career training support for students in TCC's Radiologic Technology program, is awarded based on career aspirations and financial need. In addition to financial support, the program connects students with experienced health care professionals, who serve as mentors throughout the students’ educational journeys.

According a press release from the TRA Medical Foundation, “our overarching goal is to broaden educational offerings and opportunities in CT, MRI, and Mammography. By doing so, we aim to generate employment, address workforce shortages, and enhance the quality of healthcare services in our community.”
