September 20 Think Tank - Accessing the Foreign-Born Workforce

A fully employed and steadily growing US economy implies that our workforce challenges will continue unabated without an increase in the supply of labor that is on par with the ever-increasing demand. During this session we will encapsulate the opportunity to tap into an important labor pool - foreign-born workers - as both a short- and long- term solution. Among the questions we will address:

• What is the current and future magnitude of our workforce challenge?
• What is the available supply of foreign-born workers and do any promising niches exist therein?
• How do you appeal to the foreign-born workforce as an employer?
• What's happening with legislation and lobbying related to visas/immigration?

We will also share 2-3 case studies of your peers in the home-based/post-acute care space who are successfully accessing the foreign-born workforce.
