This course is designed for medical and public health students who seek the leadership skills needed to develop and implement community health initiatives. Students will work in theory and practice to address the question, “How can we as young physicians and public health professionals work with community partners to lead change for better health?” By the end of the course students will be able to work in teams to apply the Challenge Model to develop and implement a community-based health initiative in the context of and in partnership with a community health center or organization. Students may not take IH802 & MC802 for degree credit.
