Turning Point

The Turning Point Program, which ran from 1997 to 2006, was funded by The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Its mission was to transform and strengthen the public health system in the United States by making it more community-based and collaborative. Turning Point created a network of public health partners in 23 states, as well as five national collaboratives, including the Leadership Development National Excellence Collaborative, to work on specific public health issues.

The Leadership Development National Excellence Collaborative

The Turning Point Leadership Development National Excellence Collaborative is a partnership of local, state, and national public health organizations working to increase collaborative leadership capacity at all levels of public health practice. The Collaborative was created in 1999 by the Turning Point Initiative. The work and products of the collaborative are funded by The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
