Leadership Committee and Workgroups

In order to effectively accomplish specific policy and systems change, capacity building, and cross-sector coordination goals in the IAPOH Strategic Framework, IAPOH convenes a Leadership & Equity Committee and six topic-specific working groups. All workgroups are co-chaired by a member with a statewide or specific policy subject matter expertise and a member who represents a community or grassroots network. 

To learn more about current workgroups, contact Janna Simon, Center Director – janna.simon@iphionline.org
