Series Overview

As a part of the Wisconsin Public Health Infrastructure Grant, UWPHI provides learning opportunities focused on the Foundational Public Health Services. The Wisconsin Discusses sessions are conversations that foster Wisconsin-centered dialogue around high-interest public health topics. Discussions typically respond to a national webinar, UWPHI presentation, or training/knowledge need identified by governmental public health. Participants will gain knowledge and identify examples of how to implement the Foundational Public Health Services framework in their work and community.
