WELCOME TO HOLI

Empowering new leaders in health, from the communities that need them most

The CUNY Health and Opportunity Leadership Institute (HOLI) is a first-of-its-kind center at the Colin Powell School for Civic and Global Leadership at The City College of New York.

HOLI equips CUNY students to become the leaders our country needs to solve its most pressing health challenges. Through coursework, leadership development, and hands-on experience, HOLI prepares students to take on bold approaches to today’s health problems and help every community celebrate more healthy birthdays.

HOLI’s offerings are open to all CUNY undergraduate and graduate students.

“HOLI has greatly expanded my vision for my career, and how I can give back to my communities. I always wanted to be in public service and address the inequities I saw growing in New York City. Through HOLI, I have learned that this work is inseparable from addressing public health and health equity. HOLI gave me hands-on experience working alongside health policy leaders and community organizations, which has strengthened my leadership skills and deepened my commitment to building a career at the intersection of public service and health equity.”
