They include ID, IA, PA and SD.  There may be an opportunity for an additional 1-2 states in the January cohort.  • The data collected from the 11 states is very telling.  The main shortage problem does not appear to be retention based but rather recruitment based.  States are implementing a variety of strategies to address this.  The strategies will be shared in the coming months.
