Formerly known as Tennessee Rural Partnership, in early 2018, we expanded our focus to include other professions in the healthcare workforce such as nursing and allied health and increased our pipeline initiatives. To honor our expanded focus, the Board of Directors voted to change our name to the Tennessee Center for Health Workforce Development. While our work has expanded, our core mission is unchanged and we stay committed to improving the health of Tennesseans by guiding healthcare workforce development in our state. Our work falls into 4 categories: • Recruitment & Incentives • Allied Health • Nursing • Pipeline Programs
