Subject: Kellogg Health Scholars Program - APPLICATIONS INVITED
** Moving the Profession Forward--AAHE
** www.aaheinfo.org

Dear Friends,
We are pleased to inform you with a reasonable amount of certainty that the
first cohort of the Kellogg Health Scholars Program will begin fall of 2006.
Final details on the program will be forthcoming. In the meantime we encourage
those interested in this exciting new program to submit an application, which
can be found at https://www.cfah.org/kelloggProgram.=20
The Kellogg Health Scholars Program is a joint program that combines the highly
successful COMMUNITY HEALTH SCHOLARS PROGRAM AND SCHOLARS IN HEALTH DISPARITIES
PROGRAM. The deadline for submitting an application is Wednesday, January 4,
2006. We encourage you to please read the application carefully before
applying.=20
This exciting, new program offers two-year postdoctoral fellowships at 10
training sites, beginning in the fall of 2006. Seven fellowships will be in the
Multidisciplinary Diversities and six fellowships in the Community-Disparities
track. The first track highlights a multi-disciplinary approach to studying the
social determinants of health disparities. The other track highlights
community-based participatory research, and relationships between academe,
community and public health practice.
Our two programs have partnered with each other and with allies in policy and
practice organizations across the country to create a movement aimed at
eliminating health disparities and securing equal access to the conditions and
services essential for achieving healthy communities. By combining the proven
strengths of each of our programs, we have created a new, linked program to
develop a cadre of leaders
with: the competency to translate research to policies that address health
disparities; the capacity to partner with communities in carrying out research
and building policy advocacy; and the skills to inform and support policy makers
who seek to reduce and eliminate health disparities. The vision of our new
Program embodies the conversion of the traditional "three-legged stool"
(community; academe; practice) of "Community-Based Public Health" into a more
powerful "four-legged stool"
adding a strong policy leg.
The "Multidisciplinary Disparities" track is based on the current Scholars in
Health Disparities Program, and training will be provided at the following
sites:
Columbia University-Mailman School of Public Health
Harvard School of Public Health
Morgan State University - Public Health Program
University of California, San Francisco - Center on Social Disparities in Health
University of Michigan - Institute for Social Research
University of Pittsburgh Grad. School of Public Health - Center for Minority
Health
University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center - Health Disparities
Research,=20
Education and Training Consortium
The "Community-Disparities" track is based on the current Community Health
Scholars Program, and training will be provided at the following
sites:
Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health
University of Michigan School of Public Health
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Public Health
Each fellowship will provide an annual salary of $55,000, an annual research
fund and other benefits.
Complete information on the Program as well as its new web site will be
available soon. In the meantime, for information pertinent to specific tracks

track.
