About Umemba Health Foundation

This distinction ensures that we can tailor our educational offerings to meet the unique needs of both organizations and individual learners, fostering a comprehensive approach to public health workforce development. We are proud to be at the forefront of public health education and workforce development, and we are committed to continuing our mission to elevate the skillsets of public health professionals across the nation.
