Abstract：
BACKGROUND: In light of persistent health inequities, this commentary describes the critical role of maternal and child health (MCH) graduate training in schools and programs of public health (SPPH) and illustrates linkages between key components of MCH pedagogy and practice to 2021 CEPH competencies.
METHODS: In 2018, a small working group of faculty from the HRSA/MCHB-funded Centers of Excellence (COEs) was convened to define the unique contributions of MCH to SPPH and to develop a framework using an iterative and consensus-driven process. The working group met 5 times and feedback was integrated from the broader faculty across the 13 COEs. The framework was further revised based on input from the MCHB/HRSA-funded MCH Public Health Catalyst Programs and was presented to senior MCHB leaders in October 2019.
RESULTS: We developed a framework that underscores the critical value of MCH to graduate training in public health and the alignment of core MCH training components with CEPH competencies, which are required of all SPPH for accreditation. This framework illustrates MCH contributions in education, research and evaluation, and practice, and underscores their collective foundation in the life course approach.
CONCLUSIONS: This new framework aims to enhance training for the next generation of public health leaders. It is intended to guide new, emerging, and expanding SPPH that may currently offer little or no MCH content. The framework invites further iteration, adaptation and customization to the range of diverse and emerging public health programs across the nation.

摘要：
背景：鉴于持续的健康不平等，本评论描述了妇幼保健(MCH)研究生培训在学校和公共卫生计划(SPPH)中的关键作用，并说明了MCH教学法和实践的关键组成部分与2021年CEPH能力之间的联系。
方法：2018年，由HRSA/MCHB资助的卓越中心（COE）召集了一个由教师组成的小型工作组，以定义MCH对SPPH的独特贡献，并使用迭代和共识驱动的过程开发框架。工作组举行了5次会议，并整合了13个COE中更广泛的教师的反馈。该框架根据MCHB/HRSA资助的MCH公共卫生催化剂计划的投入进行了进一步修订，并于2019年10月提交给MCHB高级领导人。
结果：我们开发了一个框架，强调了MCH对公共卫生研究生培训的关键价值，以及MCH核心培训组件与CEPH能力的一致性，这是所有SPPH认证所必需的。这个框架说明了妇幼保健在教育方面的贡献，研究和评估，和实践，并强调了他们在生命历程方法中的集体基础。
结论：这个新框架旨在加强对下一代公共卫生领导者的培训。它旨在指导新的，新兴,和扩展SPPH，目前可能提供很少或没有MCH内容。该框架邀请进一步迭代，适应和定制全国范围内多样化和新兴的公共卫生计划。
