Through workforce development and community engagement, the Larson Institute builds the capacity of the public health workforce, strengthens state and local systems, and mobilizes communities across disciplines to improve health outcomes.
This interactive course, featuring case study examples from partners throughout the state of Nevada, explores and details the critical role that cultural competency plays in the public health workforce’s efforts to address health disparities and advance health equity.
The result of a shared initiative between the Nevada Division of Public and Behavioral Health and the Larson Institute, the Silver State Public Health Training Hub is a one-stop training and resource hub designed to meet the evolving workforce training and development needs of the public health workforce.
From public health data to neighborhood-based action, we help transform evidence into solutions that work for Nevada communities.
