Abstract
As eliminating health disparities becomes a national priority, schools of public health must respond by increasing the number of minority students who graduate with degrees in public health. Creating a more diverse workforce will have a positive impact on the disparities that currently exist. This article offers a rationale for increasing diversity in the public health workforce and describes a project funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) designed to train minority graduate students in public health to eliminate health disparities.
