Resource Summary: The Association of Clinicians for the Underserved (ACU) recognizes the immense impact that health professions training programs have in creating a prepared workforce and alleviating recruitment and retention challenges at health centers. With the support of HRSA’s Bureau of Primary Health Care, ACU’s STAR² Center facilitated a short assessment to gather information on health centers’ current experiences with health professions training activities. The assessment gathered information from health centers regardless of their experiences with health professions training activities at the time that they completed the survey in order to identify potential areas for resources, training, and technical assistance. A summary report of the assessment findings was developed following the close of the survey.
