Are You a Leader Working Across Sectors?

The National Leadership Academy for the Public’s Health (NLAPH) offers an innovative approach by bringing together teams of leaders from multiple sectors to actively engage their communities to  achieve health equity.

Do You Learn By Doing?

We use blended learning modalities including webinars, a retreat, coaching from national experts, and peer networking to advance your team’s skills and knowledge.  Your leadership practice will be further refined and deepened as your team works together on an applied health leadership project to improve population health.

Do You Want To Advance Your Leadership Practice?

After the 12-month program you will have:

• Individual leadership mastery
• The ability to work effectively across sectors
• The knowledge to apply action learning principles to achieve quality improvement
• The skills to use appropriate data for planning, assessment, monitoring and evaluation
• The commitment to integrate a public health perspective, including social determinants of health and health equity, into your work
