  • Behavioral Health Workforce Development
  • Socioeconomic Diversity Assessment
  • Inclusion Strategies

Background:

  • Assessing socioeconomic diversity is vital for identifying student needs and enabling planned inclusion.
  • Existing methods for assessing socioeconomic background are insufficient.
  • A comprehensive set of background indicators is necessary for effective workforce development programs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe an approach for determining socioeconomic background among participants in a behavioral health workforce program.
  • To highlight the importance of comprehensive socioeconomic indicators in recruitment and selection.
  • To provide a starting point for improving diversity assessment in workforce development.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized three distinct strategies to assess the socioeconomic background of participants.
  • Collected data on indicators such as housing affordability, plasma sales, and experiences of homelessness.
  • Focused on individuals within a specific behavioral health workforce program.

Main Results:

  • Identified specific socioeconomic challenges faced by participants.
  • Four individuals reported inability to pay for housing.
  • Three participants had sold plasma, and one experienced homelessness during graduate school.

Conclusions:

  • The findings underscore the need for comprehensive socioeconomic indicators in workforce development.
  • This approach can guide more inclusive recruitment and selection processes.
  • Further research is needed to refine and expand these assessment strategies.
