CPEHN Coalition Advances Inclusionary Hiring Policies for CA Health Centers
The California Pan-Ethnic Health Network (CPEHN) coalition is advancing inclusionary hiring policies that would strengthen community representation requirements at FQHCs and other safety-net providers. The initiative aligns with CLAS Standards and emphasizes hiring from the communities served — particularly important for FQHCs where 90%+ of patients may be Latino but leadership demographics don't always match.
