MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH TRAINING GRANT - The United States lags behind most developed countries in indicators of maternal and child health (MCH). Preparing a well-informed and impactful MCH workforce necessitates an educational program that spans broad topics and experiences, supporting cross-disciplinary training and collaboration. The Center of Excellence in MCH (MCH CoE) at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health integrates high-quality training, educational opportunities, and technical assistance to advance essential MCH goals locally and nationally. Goal 1: To recruit and support a diverse group of master’s and doctoral students to become MCH leaders by: 1a) providing interdisciplinary education to students from various disciplines; 1b) increasing targeted outreach to attract students from disciplines not typically well-represented in MCH; 2) funding tuition for up to 20 students; and 3) ensuring =20% of funded students are from underrepresented groups. Goal 2: To provide master’s and doctoral education for leadership in MCH by: 1) maintaining and expanding a curriculum that ensures compliance with MCH leadership competencies; 2) having students demonstrate research or service expertise through a practicum, thesis, dissertation, or culminating experience; 3) providing enhanced leadership training to a cohort of students with leadership potential; 4) providing structured student mentorship; 5) fostering and maintaining an academic workforce development and training pipeline; and 6) providing mentor training. Goal 3: To provide resources and best practices in teaching MCH to increase the capacity of current and future MCH faculty by: 1) creating 1–2 shareable teaching resources per year; 2) organizing 1–2 webinars per year on emerging issues in MCH; and 3) conducting annual Health Equity workshop. Goal 4: To provide technical assistance to enhance the capacities of community-based organizations by: 1) engaging 15–20 students in student-led technical assistance projects through the MCH Leadership Lab; 2) supporting faculty in providing professional consultation and technical assistance to public/private programs serving MCH and providing related services; 3) maintaining partnerships with historically or predominantly Black institutions; 4) expanding the Maternal Health Task Force to provide practice, policy, and research updates and guidelines; and 5) collaborating with the Centers for Disease Control to expand technical assistance. Goal 5: To develop and disseminate new knowledge by: 1) promoting and disseminating findings generated by faculty research; 2) fostering the investigative capacity of students through faculty supervision; and 3) expanding investigation of long-term health and well-being outcomes in vulnerable families. These goals will be accomplished by leveraging the MCH CoE’s rich array of courses to train master’s and doctoral students according to MCH competencies and leadership opportunities. In addition, faculty are recognized experts who provide continuing education and technical assistance. The MCH CoE coordinates with other programs at Harvard, local and regional non-governmental organizations, Title V agencies, and departments of public health, but it recruits nationally. Established and successful evaluation metrics are used across the development continuum to ensure successful training. Building on its success, the MCH CoE is well-positioned to expand its activities to effectively train the next generation of MCH leaders, provide continuing education and technical assistance, and generate new knowledge.
