<p class="MsoNormal">We are now accepting applications for an <b>optional </b>training opportunity for community teams, the
<b>Community Policy Leadership Institute (CPLI). </b>HPCDP worked with representatives from 5 Regional Health Equity Coalitions to develop the Community Policy Leadership Institutes, a model for centering equity in local, regional and state policy and decision-making
processes. The purpose of the CPLI is to bring together community leaders, local public health authorities and decision makers through a facilitated process to co-lead local policy initiatives primarily focused on reducing and preventing tobacco and alcohol
use to address health disparities and achieve better health outcomes. For more information about the purpose and goals of the CPLI, please see the attached
<i>One Pager</i>. <o:p></o:p></p>
