What a treat to sit with leaders from so many walks of life – all relentlessly chasing down every kind of good humans can dream of – it’s an amazing light to sit in! The trainers have had plenty of edge, which have sharpened our dreams for Tuolumne County. Staff circle around the feast of new ideas coming back with me each time.

The Health Leadership Program is a rich combination of learning from noted speakers, faculty and colleagues, application through our small group work and inspiration to believe that we can stretch beyond our current frame of practice.
