The Massachusetts League of Community Health Centers (MassLeague) has awarded Holyoke Health Center (HHC) a grant for $46,000 to both formalize a partnership with Holyoke Community College (HCC) to establish a route for employment for newly-graduated medical assistants and to engage non-clinical staff in training to become medical assistants.
MassLeague is an association that provides support to community-based health centers across Massachusetts. The league assists in workforce development, training and education, support in expanding health access, serves as an information hub to the health care community and much more.
The program will seek to alleviate the existing shortage of clinically-trained medical assistants to fill critical roles on HHC healthcare teams. Thank you, MassLeague for this generous donation!
