Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Health Equity
  • Workforce Development

Background:

  • The US public health (PH) workforce faces a critical shortage, impacting population health.
  • Enhancing diversity in local and state PH departments is essential.
  • Research on pathway programs for recruiting diverse PH candidates is limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the Connecticut Public Health Fellowship Program (PHFP) as a strategy to attract and diversify the PH workforce.
  • To assess the effectiveness of a fellowship program in generating interest in PH careers among students.

Main Methods:

  • The PHFP placed undergraduate and graduate students in PH roles, offering support and a stipend.
  • Program data from 97 admitted fellows (out of 205 applicants) were analyzed.
  • Statistical tests (chi-square, t-tests) compared fellows to non-fellows and broader student samples.

Main Results:

  • Initial analysis of program data did not yield statistically significant differences between PHFP fellows and non-fellows.
  • Fellows were compared to representative samples of PH students nationally and regionally.

Conclusions:

  • The PHFP demonstrates potential to diversify the PH workforce and advance health equity.
  • Further large-scale research is needed to understand the long-term impact of such experiential learning initiatives.
