Upcoming ACU & STAR² Center Webinars
May 26-27: 12-5 p.m. ET
Presented by the ACU’s STAR2 Center, Community Health Center, Inc./Weitzman Institute, and the National Association of Community Health Centers
The free, two-day virtual event is an opportunity for health centers, health center-controlled networks, and primary care associations to unite to share promising practices in addressing workforce challenges and needs. This year’s Summit will focus on workforce matters during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, the role of technology, and integration of diversity, equity, and inclusion principles. Join presentations, group discussions, and breakout groups for information on innovative workforce models, successful practices, and useful resources for strategic workforce planning. HRSA Associate Administrators Jim Macrae (Bureau of Primary Health Care), Tom Morris (Federal Office of Rural Health Policy), and Dr. Luis Padilla (Bureau of Health Workforce) will kick off the event by sharing their vision for the health center workforce in the “new normal.”
