| Addressing the need for leadership development to improve the health of communities is the focus of Mid-Atlantic Health Leadership Institute (MHLI). Through the development of leadership skills and shared vision, the Institute will facilitate creative, collaborative, integrated, and effective approaches to achieving community health goals. The Mid-Atlantic Health Leadership Institute (MHLI) maintains that in addition to disease prevention and treatment, through traditional public health and health care measures such as childhood immunizations and access to medical care, the health of communities is dependent on an array of other factors. These factors include, but are not limited to meaningful work, decent housing, clean water, adequate schools, just laws, and wise policy. A leadership institute that will contribute to the improvement of health in communities must be capable of considering the multidimensional issues affecting communities and enroll a broad audience of professionals integral to the development of healthy communities. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is accredited as a provider of continuing nursing education (CNE) by the American Nurses Credentialing Center's Commission on Accreditation. Our program is approved for about 50 contact hours. The CDC is also approved as a provider by the International Association for Continuing Education and Training (IACET) and is authorized by IACET to offer program participants approximately 5 CEUs.
