The CDC/University of California Public Health Leadership
Institute (PHLI) is a 1-year scholars program that includes an
intensive on-site week, scheduled for March 17-21, 1997. Conducted
under a cooperative agreement between CDC's Public Health Practice
Program Office and the University of California at Los Angeles, the
PHLI is designed to strengthen the nation's public health system by
enhancing the leadership capacities of senior city, county, state,
and international public health officials. The program curriculum
focuses on four areas: challenges -- current and future issues
confronting public health; leadership and vision; communication and
information; and political and social change.
The sixth year of the PHLI will begin on November 18, 1996,
with an orientation for approximately 50 scholars at the American
Public Health Association Annual Meeting in New York City. During
the first 5 years of the PHLI, 273 public health leaders from 47
states and the District of Columbia have participated in the
program.
Senior state and local health officials, including deputy
directors nominated by state health directors, are eligible. The
applications are available and must be submitted by August 15,
1996, and selected scholars will be notified by September 30, 1996.
Additional information and applications are available from the
