• Developing and implementing a national professional development plan that emphasizes partnerships, is based on agency needs, and focuses on school health topics and priorities.
• Working together to provide at least 3 professional development events for partners funded to implement Coordinated School Health Programs, HIV prevention programs, and asthma management programs by February 2013.
• Providing leadership for the CDC/DASH funded partners meeting.
• Creating an on-line networking and resource sharing system for CDC/DASH-funded partners to share materials, tools, and strategies.
