Increasing Diversity in the Health ProfessionsCCP provided conference and meeting management services to The California Wellness Foundation for 10 years (2003-2013) as they convened grantees in their Increasing Diversity in the Health Professions portfolio. These conferences engaged upwards of 250 participants per year working to address health disparities and promote health equity by increasing the number of underrepresented minorities in health professions. Additionally, each year, three Champions of Health Professions Diversity Awardees were celebrated at a dinner during the conference. These champions are recognized for their efforts to increase California’s diverse health workforce. In 2015, CCP managed and facilitated a retreat for the same audience. This retreat generated new relationships, new learning, and new ideas that, according to attendees, reenergized and reorganized the work moving forward. Conversations also focused on opportunities to scale up strategies that are working well. One participant noted, “This was a revelatory experience in terms of meeting and forming potential partnerships with an amazing collection of colleagues. So many streams of alignment. Loved the intergenerational representation. Rich dialogue of challenging discussions. Has the potential to be transformational for our program.” Convenings bring people and organizations together. The community ultimately benefits from better alignment between the work and the essential conditions to engage and support underrepresented minorities to become health professionals with the ultimate goal of delivering accessible, quality, and culturally competent care for California’s diverse populations. California Health Workforce Commission Webinar Series CCP’s work with Cal Wellness directly contributed to the evolution of the California Future Health Workforce Commission (CFHWC), which was formed to develop and advance workforce priorities for health care delivery to improve health, equity and well-being in all communities in California. In 2020, CCP supported the implementation of a webinar series based on the Commission’s policy recommendations. Recordings of these webinars can be found on the Commission’s website.
