The Alliance, in partnership with the Arizona State Primary Care Office, academic institutions, and other key stakeholders, provides our CHCs with training and technical assistance on effective recruitment and retention strategies through a variety of learning opportunities, including our Annual Recruitment & Retention Conference and the National Rural Recruitment and Retention Network (3RNet) AZ Collaborative.

The Alliance supports our CHCs with staff development and training, primarily through the facilitation of True Colors Workshops by a Certified True Colors Staff Trainer. True Colors is a model of personality identification that lays the foundation for relationship building, effective communication, and teamwork. You can request a workshop for your staff by clicking here.

The Alliance partners with the Arizona Department of Health Services Primary Care Office to facilitate training and education on loan repayment and scholarship programs including the Arizona State Loan Repayment Program, the National Health Service Corps Program, and the Nurse Corps Program. These programs offer financial incentives such as loan repayment and/or scholarships in exchange for service in Health Professional Shortage Areas in Arizona. They also provide assistance with locating jobs in high-need communities. We encourage primary care medical, dental, and behavioral health providers working in an underserved area to apply.
