SEPHLI Team Wins Runner-Up in NLN Balderson Project Award

Ami Sklar & Mark McCalman accept Leadership Project Award - SEPHLI, December

SEPHLI is pleased to announce that our very own SEPHLI scholars from the 2004-2005 cohort have won runner-up for the Balderson Leadership Project Award for their SEPHLI Community Leadership Project, "Tennessee Epidemiologic Workforce Capacity Assessment". We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate the runners-up: 

• Mark McCalman, Epidemiologist, Sullivan County Regional Health Department, Tennessee
• Ami Sklar, Epidemiologist, Jackson-Madison County Regional Health Department, Tennessee

See the final project.

Each year, SEPHLI requires scholars to develop a Community Leadership Project.  Often times, these leadership projects have impact long after scholars graduate.  We at SEPHLI feel that success has been achieved when we can inspire and assist public health leaders participating in our program to go out and make a direct and positive impact in their communities.

Congratulations to these outstanding public health leaders!
