In 2025, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Public Health Workforce Branch (PHWB) sought to strengthen their team’s approach to supporting the scientific workforce pipeline for CDC and state, territorial, local, and tribal health departments throughout the country. PHWB hired Facente Consulting to assist them in developing a new branch structure that will align with the current public health environment.
In this project, Facente Consulting will support PHWB by planning and facilitating a series of in-person and virtual meetings to elicit ideas for changes to PWHB’s operations. These meetings will also result in prototypes for optimal branch restructuring that can be recommended to CDC leadership for consideration.
