The ELAM and ELH Leaders Forum is a unique opportunity for fellows and their institutional leaders to discuss the wide range of organizational change initiatives addressed during the fellowship year. The core of the Leaders Forum is a poster symposium showcasing the outcomes of the fellows' Institutional Action Projects (IAPs) — the capstone of the ELH fellowship year.

IAPs are completed in one of five categories: administration, clinical, education, faculty development and research. The IAP posters from the 2023 ELH Leaders Forum are available to download as PDFs below.
