| Faculty for the Engaged Campus |
Supported by a grant from the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE) in the US Department of Education, this national initiative of CCPH in partnership with the University of Minnesota and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill aims to legitimize and support community-engaged career paths in the academy by developing innovative competency-based models of faculty development, facilitating peer review and dissemination of products of community-engaged scholarship, and supporting community-engaged faculty through the promotion and tenure process. |
| Health Disparities Service-Learning Collaborative |
Funded by the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS), this initiative supports sustained efforts by schools and graduate programs of public health to reduce racial and ethnic health disparities through authentic service-learning partnerships with communities. |
| Communities as Partners in Cancer Clinical Trials |
CCPH and the Education Network to Advance Cancer Clinical Trials are convening this 3-part invitational conference series to explore the potential of employing community-based participatory research principles in therapeutic trial design, recruitment and retention and dissemination, and to define an agenda for research, practice and policy. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality and the National Cancer Institute are providing core funding for the conference series. |
| National Service-Learning Clearinghouse |
CCPH is the
Senior Program Advisor for Higher Education for the National
Service-Learning Clearinghouse (NSLC). Funded by the Corporation for
National and Community Service, the NSLC is a web-based
clearinghouse of resources that support service-learning at the K-12,

| Community-Based Dental Partnership Program Training and Technical Assistance |
CCPH provides training and technical assistance to the Community-Based Dental Partnership program of the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) which funds eligible dental schools, postdoctoral dental education programs, and dental hygiene programs to increase access to oral health care for unserved and underserved rural and urban HIV-positive populations. Funding supports oral health service delivery and provider training in community settings. |
| Engaged Institutions Initiative |
Funded by the WK Kellogg Foundation, this initiative
is supporting sustained efforts by schools and graduate programs of
public health to eliminate racial and ethnic health disparities in
partnership with communities. CCPH is working collaboratively and
intensively with teams from 12 schools and graduate programs as they
develop and implement strategic action plans to become fully engaged
institutions with a focus on eliminating racial and ethnic health
disparities. Consultation is provided by members of the CCPH Consultancy Network. The initiative also
sponsors teleconferences, identifies promising practices and produces
resource materials. |
| Community-Engaged Scholarship for Health Collaborative |
With funding from the US Department of Education's Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE), the Collaborative is a group of 9 health professional schools that aims to significantly change faculty review, promotion and tenure policies and practices to recognize and reward community-engaged scholarship - in the participating schools and their peers across the country. |
| Commission on Community-Engaged Scholarship in the Health Professions |
With funding from the WK Kellogg Foundation, this Commission is designed to take a leadership role in creating a more supportive culture and reward system for health professional faculty involved in community-based participatory research, service-learning and other forms of "community-engaged scholarship." |
| Health Professions Schools in Service to the Nation Program |
Health Professions Schools in Service to the Nation was a national demonstration program of service-learning in health professions education that ran from 1994-1998 and awarded three-year grants to 17 health professional schools across the United States. It was a program of the Pew Health Professions Commission and the National Fund for Medical Education, sponsored by The Pew Charitable Trusts, the Corporation for National Service and the Health Resources and Services Administration and administered by the Center for the Health Professions at the University of Califomia-San Francisco. The goals of the program were to:

| National Health Service Corps Educational Partnership Agreement Project | The National Health Service Corps Scholarship Program
recently reinstated scholarships for 3rd and 4th year dental students.
In exchange for the scholarship, the student agrees to practice
dentistry in an underserved community upon graduation (or completion of
a general dentistry residency). The NHSC believes that the dental
school must be committed to these students and provide a learning
environment that nurtures their commitment to serving the underserved.
This includes providing students with advising and mentoring,
service-learning, cultural competency training and placement
assistance. Dental schools that have signed an Educational Partnership Agreement with the
NHSC agree to provide these opportunities, and in exchange, their
dental students are eligible to apply for the NHSC scholarship program.
CCPH served as a training and technical assistance contractor for service-learning and community partnerships during the initiative's first year, 2000-2001. CCPH provided assistance to all of the dental schools that signed Educational Partnership Agreements. |
| California Public Health Preparedness Corps | CCPH
examined the possibility of starting this new program with an
AmeriCorps planning grant from the Governor's Office of Service and
Volunteerism. Ultimately, we decided not to move forward with a full
proposal.
Local public health agencies (e.g.,
local public health departments, community hospitals and community
health centers) serve on the frontlines in responding to many public
health emergencies. While the threat of a bioterrorist event in most
California communities is thought to be low, it The California Public Health
Preparedness Corps would utilize the resources of AmeriCorps to
demonstrably increase the ability of local public health agencies to
effectively respond to public health emergencies. The program would
equip health professional students |

| Service-Learning for Family Health |
CCPH and the California State University Chancellor's office collaborated on a state-wide AmeriCorps program called Service-Learning for Family Health (SLFH) funded by the Governor's Office of Service and Volunteerism. The program engaged college students and others in service-learning experiences that promote healthier communities and provides them with leadership opportunities. Five CSU campuses participated in the SLFH program in 2002-2003: Sonoma State University, San Francisco State University, San Jose State University, Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, and CSU Northridge. Members served either 450 hours or 900 hours based at community-based health organizations. SLFH members served the campus and community in three critical ways: 1) develop new service-learning opportunities and strengthen existing service-learning opportunities; 2) serve as peer leaders; and 3) support the community-university partnership. For more information about the SLFH program and other service-learning initiatives of the California State University system, please click here.

| Preparing the Health Workforce of the Future: Community Voices Service-Learning Partnerships |
With support from the WK Kellogg Foundation, this project was designed to facilitate and strengthen community-campus partnerships between Community Voices collaboratives and nearby colleges and universities, and to articulate the role of communities in achieving a competent, diverse health workforce. Community Voices collaboratives in thirteen communities worked to ensure access to health care for the underserved. This project was exciting and unique in that communities seek to engage colleges and universities as partners in their efforts to meet community needs, improve health and ensure a competent, diverse workforce. Often, higher educational institutions "reach out" to the community to fulfill their academic missions of teaching, research and service. Thus, this effort promised to generate new knowledge about community-driven service-learning partnerships that can inform practice across the country.
