Barb Clapp, CEO of Dwyer Workforce Development, a nonprofit organization supporting individuals pursuing healthcare careers, said that Texas lawmakers are taking appropriate steps to address the state’s healthcare staffing crisis. She made that comment in the Lone Star Standard on March 14.
“As DWD has grown throughout Texas over the past two years, the response we have received in communities has been overwhelmingly positive,” said Clapp. “Education is power, which is why we are boldly addressing systemic barriers head-on to lift up communities and address the catastrophic healthcare staffing crisis in Texas. We’re glad to see Texas’ leaders dedicating time to this issue this session.”
