Growing Health Center Leaders Education Program

Growing Health Center Leaders is a dynamic online learning and networking program for new and aspiring leaders in community health centers. The virtual two-day event offers non-c-suite participants the chance to learn and practice leadership skills and understand strategies for career growth in the field. Learners can also apply their new skills beyond the initial event through a facilitated extended learning program to ensure long-term application and retention.

The Growing Health Center Leaders program recognizes that serving as a leader is more than holding a position or title, it’s the active cultivation of a person’s skills, resiliency, and mindset. As such, the program takes the learner on a journey of discovery, on how to lead oneself – and then translates that knowledge into practical application at work in health centers.

Join the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) for a dynamic, participatory learning experience and develop organizational leadership skills! They welcome participants for whom this might be your their professional development activity in a while (or ever)!

By the end of this program, participants will be able to:

• Communicate effectively to develop relationships, manage conflicts, and work across differences.
• Cultivate core values to provide a safe and productive workplace that aligns with the organization’s mission.
• Engage actively in team-based activities, meetings, and projects.
• Identify key leadership skills and tools needed to focus on the critical drivers behind change during the transition to a leadership role.
