  • About Masshire the Massachusetts State Workforce System
    ABOUT MASSHIRE THE MASSACHUSETTS STATE WORKFORCE SYSTEM WHAT IS MASSHIRE? MassHire is a new brand unifying the entire Massachusetts Workforce Development System under a single name and shared mission. Commissioned by the Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development (EOLWD), it signifies the state’s commitment to increasing meaningful career opportunities for job seekers and expanding the talent pool for businesses seeking trained, skilled employees. The brand, MassHire, unifies and empowers all state, regional, and local workforce entities. It enables them to communicate with clients — job seekers and businesses — with a clear, consistent, powerful message. MassHire provides a foundation for conveying the depth, breadth, and connectivity of its value and services across all audiences. What’s changing? 16 local boards will become MassHire Workforce Boards; 29 career centers will become MassHire Career Centers. The Massachusetts Workforce Development Board will become the MassHire State Workforce Board, and the Department of Career Services will be the MassHire Department of Career Services. When is this happening? Our statewide launch will be on August 29, 2018. Our local workforce boards and career centers will launch in their regions throughout the following two months. Why Rebrand? In discussions with businesses, jobseekers, education partners, workforce development professionals, and other stakeholders, EOLWD gathered extraordinary insight. For example: • It became evident that employers and job seekers are largely unaware of the resources provided by the state’s workforce system. In short, much of our target audience simply didn’t realize they could turn to a statewide network for employment or business services. • We unearthed new challenges and opportunities for more effectively addressing the unique employment and business needs for a dynamic 21st century economy.

  • Greater Lowell Community Health Needs Assessment
    Greater Lowell Community Health Needs Assessment Conducted on Behalf of: Lowell General Hospital Saints Medical Center Greater Lowell Health Alliance Authors: A. James Lee, PhD Leland K. Ackerson, ScD Kimberly Flodin, MS Craig Slatin, ScD University of Massachusetts Lowell September 2010 The authors thank the many individuals (as well as the organizations for which they work) who participated in focus group and personal interviews. We also thank Michelle Davis, and Erin Caples for coordinating the hospitals’ involvement and support of our work. Finally, we give special thanks to Alicia Rogers and Amy Stanley for recruiting and scheduling the focus groups and personal interviews. The research was conducted by the Center for Health Promotion and Research at University of Massachusetts Lowell. Executive Summary On behalf of Lowell General Hospital (LGH), Saints Medical Center (SMC) and the Greater Lowell Health Alliance (GLHA), a team of UMass Lowell researchers and students conducted a community health needs assessment study to distinguish the unmet medical and public health needs within the Greater Lowell community. The geographic area assessed included the communities of Lowell, Billerica, Chelmsford, Dracut, Dunstable, Tewksbury, Tyngsborough and Westford. The study had two objectives. One objective was to meet state and federal requirements that the two hospitals conduct a Comprehensive Health Needs Assessment every three years. The second, ultimately more important objective was to conduct a study that would provide a foundation for the GLHA and its partners, including LGH and SMC, in working to build consensus on the area’s health needs and plan coordinated activities to improve the health of the area’s residents.
