About NEONI 

NEONI works to develop, implement and sustain healthcare workforce collaboratives that empower, strengthen and grow the Northeast Ohio healthcare workforce. In 2000, when it became apparent there was something different about the looming healthcare workforce shortage than shortages in the past, The Center for Health Affairs, the leading advocate for Northeast Ohio hospitals, formed its workforce initiative, NEONI.

The intent of NEONI is to create and sustain a strong professional healthcare workforce in Northeast Ohio by attracting individuals to the profession, facilitating education and increasing public understanding of the healthcare workforce shortage across the region.
