Hear from our Community

 

Strengthening the behavioral health workforce is essential to expanding access to care and improving community well-being. Through our partnership with HealthForce Partners, we are investing in local talent, expanding access to training, and building a more responsive system of care. These kinds of workforce strategies ensure that Stanislaus County can meet today’s needs while preparing for the challenges of tomorrow.

— Ruben Imperial, Director, Behavioral Health and Recovery Services, County of Stanislaus

 

This program has been life-changing. The knowledge, support, and guidance I received not only prepared me for a career in healthcare but gave me confidence in my abilities. I would wholeheartedly recommend this program to anyone aspiring to work in healthcare or behavioral health. It provides a solid foundation and opens doors to a fulfilling career.

— Brittany Cortez, Healthcare Professions Pathways Program Participant

 

Investing in the HealthForce Partners’ Behavioral Health Workforce Partnership Project in our region will be critical in addressing the mental health needs of our community. This initiative not only supports our residents in gaining valuable education and career opportunities, but it also ensures that Modesto has the skilled professionals necessary to provide essential services. We are proud to support this collaboration and look forward to the positive impact it will have on our city.
