2021 Workforce Summit – Day 2 – Leading Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

By : Mariah

Health centers were born from civil rights efforts and have a long history of working towards diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). In the last year, many health centers recommitted to this work and are being more intentional about including diverse representation, culture, and perspectives into health center operations and health care delivery. In this session, participants will understand the role of leaders in driving more equitable and inclusive work environments and successful models that can be incorporated into day-to-day practice.

2021 Workforce Summit – Day 1 – Telehealth & the Remote Environment

By : Mariah

Telehealth and new remote work opportunities are changing the way in which health centers operate. In addition to remote-work legal considerations, having staff who no longer share physical space changes the workplace dynamic. Given the benefits of remote work for employees, many health centers will be adopting hybrid work environments. In this session, participants heard about legal considerations for remote work and strategies to support team cohesion when staff are no longer co-located around the clock.
