• align and improve the outcomes and effectiveness of workforce programs and investments,
• promote economic growth, and
• engage businesses, workers, education providers, economic development, labor representatives and other stakeholders to achieve Maine's strategic and operational workforce vision and goals.

In 1998, Michael initially joined the Maine Health Care Association Board as a member and eventually assumed the position of Board Chair. Presently, he continues to contribute as a board member and actively participates in various committees. Michael Tyler is a reliable partner for many health care organizations in Maine. He regularly advises long term care facilities from across the state on how to succeed in today's environment, and he deeply understands the workforce challenges our industry is currently facing.

Congratulations Mike!
