National Centers of Excellence in Women's Health

The National Centers of Excellence in Women's Health (CoEs)
serve as demonstration models for the Nation to provide innovative, comprehensive, multidisciplinary, and integrated health care systems for women. The CoEs provide for the special needs of women, including the underserved and minorities, by integrating:

  • state-of-the-art comprehensive and integrated health care services
  • multidisciplinary research
  • public and professional education, training, and materials
  • community linkages for health services and programs
  • leadership positions for women in academic medicine

Visit WomensHealth.gov for a listing of the COEs in the nation.

National Community Centers of Excellence in Women's Health

The National Community Centers of Excellence in Women's Health (CCOE) program is designed to integrate, coordinate, and strengthen linkages between programs and activities that are already underway in the community, to enhance services available to women, and to reduce fragmentation in women's health services.

The program provides recognition and resources to community-based programs to develop and integrate six components: health services delivery, particularly preventive services; training for health care professionals including allied health professionals and others; community-based research; public education and outreach; leadership development for women; and technical assistance to other communities to replicate the CCOE model.

Visit WomensHealth.gov for a listing of current CCOE programs in the nation.
