Date: May 7, 2026

This half-day, solutions-driven convening will bring together healthcare employers, workforce leaders, and community partners committed to expanding opportunity and strengthening talent pipelines across the region.

Across our healthcare system, employers are facing increasing workforce challenges characterized by hard-to-fill positions, rising demand for services, and the need for stronger pathways into healthcare careers. At the same time, talented individuals in our communities are seeking meaningful opportunities to enter and advance within the healthcare field.

Thriving Together: Bridging Talent and Opportunity is designed to connect these realities and move the conversation toward action.

During the convening, participants will:

• Hear directly from the field
• Create community-focused solutions
• Build stronger healthcare pathways

Together, we can foster thriving workplaces, expand career pathways, and build a healthcare workforce that reflects and serves our community.

We hope you will join us for this important conversation and collaborative working session.
