Medical Careers Readiness of North Carolina (MCR) was established in December 2018 with a mission to serve the Vance County, Warren, Franklin, and Granville County regions. These areas are historically known as socially and economically disadvantaged. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, approximately 28% of Vance County residents live below the federal poverty level, a rate 60% higher than the statewide average of 17.5%. Poverty levels are most significant in Henderson, Southern Oxford, and Butner. In response to these statistics, MCR is dedicated to promoting self-sufficiency among all individuals, including low- and moderate-income families, by offering specialized training programs focused on career development and long-term sustainability.
At MCR, our educators are highly qualified professionals committed to fostering academic achievement and personal growth in our students. Our team includes classroom teachers, school administrators, and other educational support professionals who bring a wealth of experience and expertise to their roles. By ensuring that all instructors meet professional standards for effective teaching, MCR is able to deliver top-quality instruction that equips students with the knowledge and skills needed to succeed in their chosen career paths.
