Help Build the Health Care & Child Care Workforce
The Department of Health Care Policy and Financing is asking for county help to communicate these time-limited training opportunities to the public. Both opportunities are intended to help grow the health care and child care workforce and to help those on Medicaid.
Specifically, please print and display these time-limited training opportunity communications in public facing and reception areas. This link includes a poster that can be printed and a digital display that can go on TV screens in public or staff areas: hfcgo.com/assistance.
The first poster communicates free, short-term training for in-demand health care professions and also communicates free early childhood education courses to become a certified child care professional. The second version addresses the free health care training as well as other programs to help low income individuals generally.
Both of the free education opportunities herein are essential to revitalizing the health care workforce, while offering upward mobility for low income Coloradans seeking new, sustainable career paths. If these communications get to the right people – specifically Medicaid members – they can be life-changing, giving people a once-in-a-life-time opportunity for free certifications that create a meaningfully different income trajectory, while helping grow the workforce.
