Our Partners are Saying
We can make a big difference for our Title V partners
Everything that has been offered has been wonderful. As the MCH Workforce Development Office in Mississippi grows and expands, we will be using the various tools in meetings with other departments, providing support to them, offering to train them in the use of the tools, and grow with staff capacity.
Learning Journey Participant
Mississippi State Department of HealthWe planned and strategized more deeply as a team because we had a framework and tools by which to do that. […] When we’re mapping our networks really intentionally and thinking about where we have power and influence, I think we are able to plan more deeply and more effectively.
Learning Journey Participant
Indiana Department of HealthI loved how our coach guided us and provided feedback only when we needed it or when we were unsure how to proceed to the next step. Otherwise, she allowed us to plan and find our own way and make our own decisions. Instead of directing efforts, she was simply a mutual, equal member of our team.
