Each summer, the National MCH Workforce Development Center supports teams of MCH students to participate in internships in state and jurisdictional Title V programs. Each two-person team consists of a graduate MCH student from a Center of Excellence in Maternal and Child Health and an MCH student from either an MCH Leadership, Education, and Advancement in Undergraduate Pathways (LEAP) Training Program or from an MCH graduate Public Health Catalyst program.
The aim of the Title V MCH Internship Program is to provide future MCH professionals with experience working in state and jursidictional Title V agencies, with mentorship and guidance from Title V agency preceptors. The ‘team’ aspect of the program allows students to engage and contribute together under the guidance of the agency preceptor and also to learn new knowledge and skills from each other.
