TOPIC OVERVIEW

• Created in 2005 by the UW-School of Medicine and Public

Health and the Medical College of Wisconsin.

• “To strengthen leadership capacity for creating partnerships,

policy, and system changes that ensure every Wisconsin community reaches its full health potential.”

• Provide “systematic and accessible public and community

health leadership training, education and technical assistance to support local agendas for community health improvement.”

Healthy Wisconsin Leadership Institute

• Year-long program that facilitates sustainable community

partnerships through the development of collaborative leadership and public health skills among teams working on health improvement.

• Selection for the program is done through a competitive

application process. The focus for 2015-2016 was NW Wisconsin; five teams were selected to participate.

Community Teams Program

• When applying, our intention was “to further develop our work

with local food shelves to implement environmental strategies to improve health.”
