Professional Development organizations are essential to career growth, development and advancement. We recognized a gap of this presence in the region’s Healthcare Industry, especially amongst Blacks.

​

NAHSE Heartland not only seeks to engage Black Leaders within our immediate region but also to connect and network with like individuals from neighboring cities and states as well as across the Nation in order to advance health equity and social justice through the EXPOSURE, ENGAGEMENT and EMPOWERMENT of Black health care leaders.

​

The National Association of Health Services Executives (NAHSE) strives to improve the health status, economic opportunities, and educational advancement of the communities we serve.

 

The NAHSE Heartland Chapter is a local, regional division of the larger organization and will embody the vision through skill building workshops and high profile community events including students, clinicians and administrators. The membership of NAHSE Heartland includes a diverse group of individuals spanning across national healthcare institutions. NAHSE is a very close partner with the ACHE (American College of Healthcare Executives) both locally and nationally and will leverage the power of both networks and organizations, among others, to support our vision. Our chapter is committed to advancing the role and contribution of minority executives, rendering healthcare to the underserved, and driving equality in healthcare. We are excited to be at the forefront of supporting and leading diversity and inclusion initiatives for healthcare executives throughout Metro Omaha, NE, IA, KS, SD, ND, MN and Northwest MO in advocating for quality in leadership, career advancement, and healthcare in the black community.
