The Association of Clinicians for the Underserved (ACU) and the STAR² Center in partnership with the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) are excited to announce the release of the Chief Workforce Officer (CWO) Toolkit. Our organizations have collaboratively developed this timely and relevant new resource to assist community health centers (CHCs) and primary care associations (PCAs) to recruit, hire, train, develop, and retain workforce leaders who are strategic, capable, and highly effective at meeting the complex needs of the CHC workforce.

As part of the toolkit you can access:

• CWO Core Competencies
• CWO Job Description Template
• CWO Venn Diagram – outlines the difference between a CWO and a Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO).
• STAR² Center Talks Workforce Success – Episodes 1-5 of this podcast focus on CWOs and provide interviews with health center workforce leaders/experts
• STAR² Center Coffee Talk – Chief Workforce Officer Toolkit
