NJLEND Fellow Leadership Posters
All NJLEND and Boggs Center Interdisciplinary Trainees are required to complete a Leadership Project either independently or in inter-professional pairs or teams. The purpose of the project is to provide an opportunity for fellows to apply their knowledge and training to the development of a resource, implementation of a program, or conduct of research that benefits the larger MCH community. At the end of NJLEND year, all Trainees give a poster presentation, sharing their project findings and implications.
