Collaborative partnership is key to our success. We believe that data and evidence matter – and that collaborative partnership is key to harnessing their power. Our goal is to ask the right questions, collect compelling evidence, and equip leaders and organizations with the knowledge, training, and tools needed to improve public health outcomes. Building future public health workforce leaders. We work every day to bridge academic insights with practical solutions – supporting our next set of public health practitioners and leaders. Realizing meaningful public health projects. Our projects are focused on building capacity, resources, and expertise for public health in North Carolina.
