How healthy is your workforce foundation?

Five questions. Two minutes. You'll get a tier rating, gap map, and matched program recommendations.

Is your employee handbook current?
Question 2 of 5
How often does compliance training happen?
Question 3 of 5
What is your annual employee turnover rate?
Question 4 of 5
Are your managers trained on coaching and progressive discipline?

Why TWF exists

Built from inside the sector - not adapted to it.

Most HR firms discover behavioral health and human services the day they take on their first client. TWF was built the other way around. We start with the operational reality of Medicaid-funded care, supervisor turnover, audit exposure, and clinical license compliance - and engineer HR systems designed to hold under that weight.

Every framework, program, and deliverable on this site was pressure-tested inside operating HHS organizations before it was ever named.
