Wyandotte County Education-to-Employment Pipeline
The Wyandotte County Education-to-Employment Pipeline was formed in late 2018 as a strategy of the Wyandotte County 2018-2022 Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP). The goal of the Pipeline is to increase the number of black, brown and bilingual youth pursuing careers in healthcare. The Pipeline today is a coalition of nearly 40 healthcare providers, government agencies, businesses, nonprofits, universities, community colleges and high schools serving Wyandotte County. The Kansas City Medical Society Foundation is the lead agency.
