About the Washington Health Workforce Sentinel Network

Washington’s Sentinel Network is a collaboration of the state’s Workforce Board and the University of Washington’s Center for Health Workforce Studies, and a program of Washington’s Health Workforce Council.

Funding to start the Sentinel Network came from the Healthier Washington initiative, with ongoing support from Governor Inslee’s office and the Washington Legislature.
