Founded in 2014, the National Maternal and Child Health Workforce Development Center helps state and territorial Title V leaders and their partners tackle complex challenges through training, collaborative learning, coaching, and consultation.
We help states advance health transformation. Transformed health systems improve health and well-being along the life course by:
- Ensuring that health opportunities exist for all.
- Focusing upstream on prevention and community factors that influence health.
- Building meaningful, cross-sector partnerships.
- Increasing access to effective, respectful, and affordable care and supports.
- Strengthening the capacity of the workforce to lead transformational change.
The Center is funded by a grant from the Health Resources and Services Administration’s Maternal and Child Health Bureau and housed in the Gillings School of Global Public Health at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill.
