Navigating the Maze: Challenges in Healthcare Career Advancement

Join us on October 6th from 3:00 – 4:00 p.m. CT to learn the findings from our recently released report, Navigating the Maze: Challenges in Healthcare Career Advancement.

The report investigates the career pathways of women healthcare workers who started in entry-level, low-paid roles in Chicago, with a particular interest in Women of Color.

We will share our learnings about what these workers experience throughout their journey from education and training to hiring and promotion, and provide recommendations for healthcare employers, education and training providers, and other stakeholders to address the barriers that thwart their goal of long-term economic mobility.

This report was made possible by the generous support of JPMorganChase.

Women Employed Speakers:

Cherita Ellens, President and CEO

Corinne Kodama, Senior Research Analyst

Efrata Sasahulih, Programs and Research Coordinator
