National Network Of Public Health Institutes

NATIONAL CENTER FOR WORKFORCE, INFRASTRUCTURE AND DATA SYSTEMS - THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC HAS LAID BARE LONG-STANDING INEQUITIES AMONG POPULATIONS, WEAKNESSES WITHIN AN ANTIQUATED PUBLIC HEALTH INFRASTRUCTURE AND LIMITED PROGRESS IN SUPPORTING AND ENHANCING A CAPABLE PUBLIC HEALTH WORKFORCE REFLECTING DIVERSITY OF THOSE THEY SERVE (I.E., RACE, ETHNICITY, GENDER AND SEXUAL IDENTITY, CULTURAL BACKGROUND AND SPOKEN/WRITTEN LANGUAGES). PUBLIC HEALTH INFRASTRUCTURE MUST BE TRANSFORMED BY EQUIPPING STATE, TRIBAL, LOCAL AND TERRITORIAL PUBLIC HEALTH AGENCIES TO STRATEGICALLY ADDRESS COMPLEX, INTERRELATED SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC SYSTEMS WHICH LEAD TO DISPROPORTIONALLY POOR HEALTH OUTCOMES FOR MARGINALIZED POPULATIONS; TO ENHANCE CROSS-SECTOR COLLABORATION; AND TO AND MODERNIZE DATA SYSTEMS. THE NATIONAL NETWORK OF PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTES (NNPHI) WILL LAUNCH THE NATIONAL CENTER FOR WORKFORCE, INFRASTRUCTURE AND DATA SYSTEMS, WHICH WILL PROVIDE CAPACITY BUILDING ASSISTANCE FOR THE 111 HEALTH AGENCIES AWARDED UNDER COMPONENT A OF CDC-RFA-OE22-2203-STRENGTHENING U.S. PUBLIC HEALTH INFRASTRUCTURE, WORKFORCE, AND DATA SYSTEMS. THE NATIONAL CENTER WILL ASSIST HEALTH DEPARTMENTS IN IMPLEMENTING KEY COMPONENT A STRATEGIES (E.G., RECRUITING, ONBOARDING, TRAINING AND RETAINING STAFF; ENHANCING FOUNDATIONAL CAPABILITIES; AND MODERNIZING DATA INFRASTRUCTURE) BY PROVIDING TRAINING AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE; EVALUATING THE OVERALL INITIATIVE; SUPPORTING DATA MODERNIZATION; AND COORDINATING AND COMMUNICATING ACROSS ALL COMPONENT A & COMPONENT B RECIPIENTS. NNPHI AND ITS PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTES HAVE DOCUMENTED ASSOCIATIONS WITH MANY STLT AGENCIES. THE NATIONAL CENTER ENGAGES PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTES AS INNOVATION HUBS AND NATIONAL PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS REPRESENTING THE LARGEST WORKFORCE SEGMENTS. OVER THE 5-YEAR INITIATIVE, IT WILL ACCELERATE PREVENTION, PREPAREDNESS, AND RESPONSE TO EMERGING THREATS; IMPROVE OTHER PUBLIC HEALTH OUTCOMES; AND INCREASE ACHIEVEMENT OF COMPONENT A GRANT OUTCOMES AND STRENGTHEN A RECIPIENTS’ CAPACITY. IN COLLABORATION WITH THE PUBLIC HEALTH TRAINING CENTER NETWORK AND AN EXPERT REVIEW WORKGROUP REPRESENTATIVE OF THE BROAD PUBLIC HEALTH WORKFORCE, NNPHI IS IN THE FINAL STAGES OF DEVELOPING A PUBLIC HEALTH RACIAL JUSTICE COMPETENCY MODEL (RJCM). THE RJCM GROUNDS PRACTITIONERS IN A SHARED UNDERSTANDING OF HOW RACISM SHOWS UP IN PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICE. PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTITIONERS CAN USE THIS MODEL TO ENSURE TRAININGS, JOB DESCRIPTIONS, PERFORMANCE APPRAISALS, AND OTHER POLICIES/ PRACTICES ARE EQUITY-CENTERED; AND TO INCREASE THE COMPETENCY OF THE PUBLIC HEALTH WORKFORCE TO ADDRESS HEALTH DISPARITIES AND REDUCE THE RACIAL HEALTH EQUITY GAP. THE NATIONAL CENTER WILL GROUND ALL ITS WORK IN THE RJCM.

IMPROVING CLINICAL AND PUBLIC HEALTH OUTCOMES THROUGH NATIONAL PARTNERSHIPS TO PREVENT AND CONTROL EMERGING AND RE-EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASE THREATS - IN RECENT YEARS, EMERGING (E.G., EBOLA, SARS) AND RE-EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES (E.G., MEASLES) HAVE TESTED PUBLIC HEALTH SYSTEM CAPACITY AT EVERY RESPONSE LEVEL, WITH COVID-19 BRINGING GREATER ATTENTION TO THE STATE OF OUR FRAGMENTED PUBLIC HEALTH INFRASTRUCTURE. THE NATIONAL NETWORK OF PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTES (NNPHI) IS THE OFFICIAL ORGANIZATION THAT REPRESENTS MORE THAN 40 MEMBER PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTES, AFFILIATE MEMBERS AND EMERGING INSTITUTES IN MORE THAN 30 STATES SPANNING ALL TEN DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES REGIONS. NNPHI IS ALSO THE HOME OF THE NATIONAL COORDINATING CENTER FOR PUBLIC HEALTH TRAINING (NCCPHT), CONVENING A NETWORK OF 10 UNIVERSITY-BASED REGIONAL PUBLIC HEALTH TRAINING CENTERS (RPHTCS) LOCATED AT ACCREDITED SCHOOLS OF PUBLIC HEALTH AND 40 LOCAL EDUCATION SITES. THROUGH THE RAPID DEPLOYMENT OF OUR DISTRIBUTIVE CAPACITY NETWORK OF PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTES AND PUBLIC HEALTH TRAINING CENTERS, NNPHI WILL IMPLEMENT ITS PREVENTING AND CONTROLLING EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES INITIATIVE (?PCEID INITIATIVE?). THE PCEID INITIATIVE WILL PROVIDE CRITICAL PROCESS AND CONTENT EXPERTISE TO SUPPORT THE HEALTH STRATEGIST WORKFORCE IN PREVENTING AND CONTROLLING EMERGING AND RE-EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES. NNPHI WILL INFORM AND ADAPT GUIDANCE, AS WELL AS DEVELOP TRAINING, IN ORDER TO PREVENT AND CONTROL EMERGING AND RE-EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES. IN STRENGTHENING THE U.S. PUBLIC HEALTH SYSTEM RESPONSE TO EMERGING AND RE-EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES, NNPHI EXPECTS TO SEE POSITIVE OUTCOMES INCLUDING THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW EXISTING INFECTIOUS DISEASE PREVENTION AND CONTROL RESOURCES, AND INCREASING THE NUMBER OF HEALTH WORKERS WHO ARE TRAINED AND UNDERSTAND BEST PRACTICES FOR THE PREVENTION AND CONTROL OF EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES.

NATIONAL RESOURCE CENTER FOR ADVANCING POLICY AS A PUBLIC HEALTH INTERVENTION TO REDUCE MORBIDITY, MORTALITY AND DISPARITIES IN HIV, VIRAL HEPATITIS, STDS, AND TB - NATIONAL NETWORK OF PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTES COMPONENT 2 PROPOSAL FOR FUNDING OPPORTUNITY CDC-RFA-PS-23-0009: ADVANCING POLICY AS A PUBLIC HEALTH INTERVENTION TO REDUCE MORBIDITY, MORTALITY AND DISPARITIES IN HIV, VIRAL HEPATITIS, STDS, AND TUBERCULOSIS PROJECT ABSTRACT IN THE UNITED STATES, MUCH OF THE STRUCTURAL INEQUALITY THAT DRIVES HEALTH DISPARITIES ACROSS RACE, SEX, GENDER, ETHNICITY, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, ABILITY, AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC CLASS ARISES FROM OPERATION OF THE LAW. THERE ARE LAWS THAT PERPETUATE INEQUITY IN ALL SOCIAL STRUCTURES, INCLUDING HOUSING, HEALTHCARE, EDUCATION, AND BEYOND. IN PUBLIC HEALTH, THESE FACTORS ARE IDENTIFIED AS SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH—CONDITIONS IN THE PLACES PEOPLE LIVE, LEARN, WORK, AND PLAY THAT AFFECT A WIDE RANGE OF HEALTH AND QUALITY-OF-LIFE RISKS AND OUTCOMES. AS A RESULT, INEQUITIES IN THESE AREAS TRANSLATE DIRECTLY TO DISPARITIES IN HEALTH. REDUCING HEALTH DISPARITIES AND DECREASING THE MORBIDITY AND MORTALITY OF DISEASES CAN REDUCE HEALTHCARE COSTS, IMPROVE GOVERNMENTAL EFFICIENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY, AND IMPROVE THE OVERALL HEALTH OF A POPULATION. IN ORDER TO DECREASE THE MORTALITY, MORBIDITY, AND DISPARITIES OF HIV, VIRAL HEPATITIS, STDS, AND TB IN U.S. POPULATIONS EXPERIENCING HEALTH DISPARITIES, AND IN RESPONSE TO COMPONENT 2 OF THE NOTICE OF FUNDING OPPORTUNITY, NNPHI WILL CREATE A TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE COORDINATION AND RESOURCE CENTER (“RESOURCE CENTER”) TO PROVIDE BOTH PROACTIVE AND RESPONSIVE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO LEADERS MAKING DECISIONS IN PUBLIC HEALTH IN STATE, LOCAL, TRIBAL, AND TERRITORIAL JURISDICTIONS NAVIGATING COMPLEX LAW AND POLICY ISSUES. ALL TA ACTIVITIES (INCLUDING TA REQUESTS, TA TRIAGE, AND DOCUMENTATION OF TA PROVISION) WILL BE HOUSED WITHING A CUSTOMIZED SALESFORCE-BASED SYSTEM DESIGNED TO STREAMLINE THE EXPERIENCE OF REQUESTORS, PROVIDERS, THE PROJECT TEAM, AND CDC TEAM MEMBERS. THE RESOURCE CENTER WILL BE STAFFED BY A DIVERSE CADRE OF SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS (SMES) SERVING AS TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE (TA) PROVIDERS WITH EXPERTISE IN IMPLEMENTING POLICY-BASED INTERVENTIONS AT EVERY JURISDICTIONAL LEVEL TO ADDRESS HEALTH DISPARITIES. NNPHI PROPOSES AN INITIAL SLATE OF SMES WITH EXPANSIVE KNOWLEDGE OF LAW AND POLICY IMPLEMENTATION CONSIDERATIONS ACROSS MULTIPLE JURISDICTIONS, WITH THE ABILITY TO QUICK IDENTIFY AND CONTRACT WITH ADDITIONAL SMES SHOULD TA REQUESTS INDICATE A NEED FOR BROADER OR DIFFERENT EXPERTISE. TA PROVIDERS WILL UTILIZE TWO APPROACHES TO MEETING THE NEEDS OF PUBLIC HEALTH DECISIONMAKERS: 1) RESPOND TO INDIVIDUAL TA REQUESTS WITH TAILORED SUPPORT; AND 2) CREATE RESOURCES BASED ON EVIDENCE-BASED BEST AND PROMISING PRACTICES AND THE EVER-EVOLVING POLICY LANDSCAPE OF NEW AND PROPOSED LEGISLATION, UPDATED DATA FROM VARIED SOURCES, AND ALL NEW RESOURCES PRODUCED BY COMPONENT 1. LEVERAGING THE NATIONAL REACH OF OUR PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTE NETWORK, WITH 47 INSTITUTES PROVIDING PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICES AND PARTNERSHIPS IN ALL FIFTY STATES PLUS WASHINGTON, DC AND PUERTO RICO, NNPHI WILL DISSEMINATE ALL RESOURCES COMPILED AND PRODUCED DURING THE PROJECT INCLUDING SUCCESS STORIES FROM PARTICIPANTS; PROACTIVELY REACH OUT TO JURISDICTIONS ACROSS THE COUNTRY TO INCREASE AWARENESS OF TA OFFERINGS AND OPPORTUNITIES; AND CONVENE STAKEHOLDERS IN COLLABORATION WITH CDC VIA REGIONAL WEBINARS, FACILITATED CONVERSATIONS, AND LEARNING LABS. NNPHI WILL EVALUATE PROJECT SUCCESS BY TRACKING TA METRICS, TA RECIPIENT SATISFACTION, DISSEMINATION METRICS, LEGISLATION RELEVANT TO PROJECT TOPICS, AND PUBLIC HEALTH DATA SETS PUBLISHED DURING THE PROJECT.
