San Luis Valley Partners are meeting healthcare workforce needs and expanding opportunity for learners

With healthcare workforce shortages gripping rural America, the San Luis Valley is showing us how partnerships grounded in vision, strategy, and a commitment to true collaboration can create opportunities for learners and build stronger communities. 



The Attainment Network is leading a coalition of local employers, higher education institutions, community organizations, and school districts that are laying a foundation for both a stronger healthcare system and a brighter future for learners.

One of the best things with working with The Attainment Network is — even with all the challenges and barriers — they just maintain this really great positive attitude of, we are going to get there. It’s really been nice to have this constant direction where can we get the yeses, and how can we make things happen.
