Kentucky Area Health Education Centers Program The Kentucky AHEC System is a cooperative venture of the University of Louisville Health Science Center and the University of Kentucky Medical Center. Through state and federal funding, eight centers or AHECs are maintained at strategic locations throughout the state. The Northeast AHEC in Morehead, the Southeast AHEC in Hazard, the Southern AHEC in Mt. Vernon and North Central Kentucky AHEC in Park Hills, KY are under the direction of the University of Kentucky College of Medicine.. The South Central AHEC in Bowling Green, the West AHEC in Madisonville, the Jackson Purchase AHEC in Murray are sponsored by the University of Louisville School of Medicine and the Northwest AHEC located in the west end of Louisville. Each AHEC is responsive to a specific area of the state and is staffed by a Center Director and discipline specific staff that will assist students and provide information about the area. Each AHEC serves as a focal point for all student activity in their designated areas. Students from both universities are welcome at any of the locations.
