For Providers

Strengthening the Workforce

In the last year, the Career Pathways Training (CPT) has connected with individuals pursuing careers in 13 healthcare, behavioral health, and social care fields. Each CPT participant has committed to a three-year service agreement with a healthcare, behavioral health, or social care provider in New York State that serves a patient population of at least 30% Medicaid/uninsured individuals (including dual eligible) or is a contracted provider with a social care network. 

These trained professionals will be entering the workforce now through Spring 2027 and will play a vital role in strengthening the healthcare system by addressing workforce shortages, enhancing patient care, and supporting communities in need.
