We are pleased to welcome additional partners who formally join us and include: the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS), University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) Fay W. Boozman College of Public Health and the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) Public Health Program.

The Region 6 South Central Public Health Training Center is one of ten HRSA regional public health centers that collaborate to provide high quality workforce development to public health and primary care professionals.
