Programs

Community Partnership for Public Health (CPP) is a program within the Community Capacity-Building core. Its purpose is to link academic research and capacity-building resources with the needs of communities. It will establish long-term campus/community collaborations to strengthen the capacity of Community-Based Organizations, identified as our community partners, to achieve health equity for the populations served. In addition to providing a resource for sustainable change within communities, the collaboration will contribute to the preparation of the next generation of public health professionals to address the needs of diverse and underserved populations in community settings.
