The Policy Training Series equips public health professionals with practical tools to create, champion, and implement policies that improve community health. Developed by LPHI and supported by the Public Health Infrastructure Grant (PHIG), this three-part resource guide is designed for anyone looking to use policy as a powerful lever for public health impact.

This resource highlights that public health impact requires more than knowledge and depends on essential “power skills” that turn ideas into action. It focuses on communication, systems thinking, collaboration, strategic use of data, and policy engagement as key to navigating complexity and driving meaningful change. By strengthening these skills, public health practitioners can build stronger partnerships, improve decision making, and create lasting, equitable outcomes for communities.

Through the Research Ready project, LPHI developed resources to facilitate improved staff engagement in clinic-based research studies.
