Healing Communities Through Workforce Where Energy, Health, and Affordability Converge
FROM POLICY TO PRACTICE: What does it really take to transform workforce into healing infrastructure?
Across America, families are choosing between keeping the lights on and keeping the doctor away. Energy insecurity and health inequities are two sides of the same coin—both stem from workforce shortages, underinvestment in local talent, and disconnected systems.
Join Paul Douglas and a powerhouse panel of cross-sector leaders for an honest conversation about designing shared solutions that reduce costs, create family-sustaining jobs, and build healthier, more resilient neighborhoods.
🎯 You'll Discover:
→ How energy burden directly correlates with chronic illness and mental stress
→ Why workforce gaps in HVAC, nursing, and home energy reduce access to essential services
→ Cross-sector collaboration models that actually work
→ How to build local talent pipelines that serve both energy and health needs
→ Measuring impact beyond job placement—economic mobility, health outcomes, energy burden reduction
