Project Summary
Grant: T72 MC 00007-15, 2009 – 2019, Maternal and Child Health Bureau
The Pediatric Pulmonary Center (PPC) Leadership Training Grant funds multidisciplinary training in postgraduate work for physicians, nurses, social workers and nutritionists. Our goal as faculty on the grant is to train leaders in family centered, community based, culturally competent and interdisciplinary care. The training focuses on a balance of inpatient hospital practice and the opportunity to develop leadership roles in advocacy, policy, research, and public health contexts for this work. Leadership training consists of required interdisciplinary clinical and advocacy activities that culminate in a trainee capstone project.
