Public Health Leadership Society (PHLS)—Alumni Association of the Institutes
The Public Health Leadership Society (PHLS) is a national network of public health leaders in the United States who
have had a common leadership training experience. Individuals are eligible for membership if they have graduated from
the National Public Health Leadership Institute, The Robert Wood Johnson State Health Leadership Initiative, or a
State/ Regional Public Health Leadership Institute. PHLS was created in 1993 by graduates of the National Public Health
Leadership Institute in direct response to their expectation for continuing leadership education and peer consultation.
Since that time, PHLS has become a national resource for consultation on public health leadership issues, for the development of public health policy, and the development of the next generation of public health leaders. Because its membership is comprised of local, state, and federal public health leaders, as well as leaders from academia and the private sector, PHLS is uniquely situated to influence health policy at all levels. PHLS is funded by membership dues and a Cooperative Agreement from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
