In Mississippi, the condition of the state’s healthcare industry shapes the medical care available to residents and employment opportunities for thousands of members of the state’s workforce.

A new policy brief, Advancing Mississippi’s Healthcare Workforce, details ways to connect more adults with training in the healthcare field and move entry-level healthcare workers up a career ladder to greater skills and higher wages. The piece builds on MEPC’s previous briefs on sector strategies and is informed by the work of the Delta Workforce Funding Collaborative.
