Joint Letter from the Directors

As the Directors for the Leadership Education Program in Maternal & Child Public Health, we are pleased that you are interested in the field of Maternal and Child Health, and specifically what we have to offer at the University of Minnesota.   As you will see through your exploration of our website, we have strong historical underpinnings as well as a vibrant present day program and set of activities focused on women, children and families.   We are committed both to the training of new leaders for MCH through our current degree programs, as well as outreach to professionals in the community who are serving MCH populations.
