Future of Work Podcast – Transforming Access and Equity in Healthcare Workforce Development – info from Pasadena City College
How can we build a healthcare workforce that truly reflects and serves our diverse communities? Our host Dr. Salvatrice Cummo, talks with founder and CEO of Futuro Health, Van Ton-Quinlivan. Together, they tackle some of the most pressing challenges in today’s healthcare labor market—from meeting critical workforce shortages to designing inclusive, accessible pathways into stable, middle-class careers.
Van shares her story of escaping from the Vietnam War with her family at the age of six, and being a first-generation college graduate was able to become a trailblazer in workforce strategy.
In this discussion, Salvatrice and Van emphasize how community colleges can become powerful engines for equity, and explore how partnerships and innovative approaches are reshaping the bridge between education and employment, especially with AI on the horizon.
