The National Public Health Partnership, generously
supported by The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, strives to
bridge the gap between the public health and museum and science
center communities by engaging these groups in a robust dialogue
with the goal of advancing the quality of and capabilities
to support public health programming in museum settings.
With generous support provided by The Robert
Wood Johnson Foundation, the National Health Museum (NHM)
is embarking upon an innovative project -- The National Public
Health Partnership (NPHP). The NPHP strives to foster collaboration
among leaders in the museum community with the organizations,
institutions and individuals who work in the nation's public
health arena. In order to advance the quality of and capabilities
to support public health programing in museums, an ongoing
robust dialogue needs to take place between the public health
and museum communities. The NPHP is the mechanism that will
generate this dialogue.
