The South Piedmont AHEC Regional Workforce Collaborative is a strategic initiative led by the Health Talent Alliance (HTA), in partnership with the NC Center on the Workforce for Health, the NC Chamber Foundation, and Regional AHEC Centers.
The goal of the Collaborative is to address the critical shortage of healthcare professionals in the South Piedmont Region by aligning regional resources and expertise to strengthen the health workforce pipeline.
Employers, educators, and key stakeholders across the region are working together to develop solutions and share resources that support a well-trained, future-ready workforce. This collaborative effort transforms a statewide workforce crisis into actionable strategies tailored to the needs of our eight-county region: Anson, Cabarrus, Cleveland, Gaston, Lincoln, Mecklenburg, Stanly, and Union.
We invite partners who are committed to building a resilient healthcare workforce to join us in this important work.
The purpose of the April meeting is to build on the foundation established in our previous session, where roles and responsibilities were defined and Action Groups were formed. This meeting will focus on advancing the work of those Action Groups as they begin identifying, refining, and designing a coordinated regional action plan to implement workforce initiatives focused on recruitment, retention, and training. Participants will collaborate to develop actionable, short-term strategies that can be launched within the next 30, 60, or 90 days.
Objective 1:
Work Groups will develop and present an Action Plan that outlines a prioritized set of 3–5 collaborative strategies to strengthen recruitment, retention, and training, with clear actions identified for implementation within 30, 60, and 90 days.
Objective 2:
Collaborative Members will provide strategic input, technical assistance, and problem solving support to strengthen action planning and implementation, enabling Work Groups to achieve measurable, high impact, and scalable outcomes.
Open to employers, educators, and workforce champions.
