The Health Equity Leadership Development Initiative aims to address the gap in federal fellowship opportunities for individuals to advance health equity and address the social determinants of health through health policies, programs, and practices.<\/p>\n<p>Racial and ethnic minority and other disadvantaged populations suffer disparities in health services utilization. Experts have noted that ensuring diverse public health and healthcare workforce is a key strategy for increasing access to and quality of healthcare for vulnerable populations and decreasing health disparities. Efforts to establish, promote, and conduct health equity training programs are an important mechanism for achieving a diverse public health and healthcare workforce. This initiative is expected to develop a cadre of diverse health professionals with leadership skills and competencies necessary for improving the health of racial and ethnic minority and other disadvantaged populations.<\/p>\n<p>General Information:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Announcement Number:<\/strong> MP-CPI-23-001<\/li>\n<li><strong>Opportunity Title:<\/strong> Health Equity Leadership Development Initiative<\/li>\n<li><strong>Award Amount:<\/strong> $600,000 &#8211; $700,000<\/li>\n<li><strong>Estimated Total:<\/strong> $2,000,000<\/li>\n<li><strong>Application Due Date:<\/strong> August 1, 2023, 6:00 p.m. ET<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table style=\"height: 76px\" width=\"161\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"100%\">\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.grants.gov\/web\/grants\/view-opportunity.html?oppId=342717&amp;utm_campaign=nofo&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=govdelivery\">Learn More<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>See the full <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grants.gov\/web\/grants\/view-opportunity.html?oppId=342717\">Health Equity Leadership Development<\/a> funding opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>A technical assistance webinar for potential applicants will be held on<strong><em> July 6, 2023, at 3:00 p.m. ET<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flnks.gd%2Fl%2FeyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX2lkIjoxMDcsInVyaSI6ImJwMjpjbGljayIsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lnpvb21nb3YuY29tL3dlYmluYXIvcmVnaXN0ZXIvV05fTm1fU1NLQ2RSNUM3RElDQmlIUElQdz91dG1fY2FtcGFpZ249bm9mbyZ1dG1fbWVkaXVtPWVtYWlsJnV0bV9zb3VyY2U9Z292ZGVsaXZlcnkiLCJidWxsZXRpbl9pZCI6IjIwMjMwNjI4Ljc4OTA0ODcxIn0.U_e1GQfCAmt82y_km3zsfCjRp-JfkAr_AhsDCNMFLK4%2Fs%2F1302998086%2Fbr%2F210311313412-l&amp;data=05%7C01%7Ckathy.downing%40umassmed.edu%7C5b90acc03dbf40b00fe008db77e0f2d9%7Cee9155fe2da34378a6c44405faf57b2e%7C0%7C0%7C638235580270239173%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=Jq8w%2B15tvQTV13GljcXO0ka5LC0pFt2tVu34N%2ByItXM%3D&amp;reserved=0\">Register<\/a><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 16px\"><br \/>\nOMH is dedicated to improving the health of racial and ethnic minority populations through the development of health policies and programs that will help eliminate health disparities.
